Tooths (oppsss words) of Wisdom 😝😂😜

Got my tooth extracted yesterday.. 😨😥😣

Though I am a Doc, Going to a dentist scares me..🙈😥😰

image

Now you may wonder what the……. in the world M I cribbing about a tooth for??!! 😯😭😭

My first wisdom tooth..😭😫😫
I know It’s not a biguhhhh deal but I had it erupting now… sooooo late..😒

image

OK, so the history goes such that… 👇👇
It started erupting at the beginning of this year, having on and off pain, I ignored it thinking it’s just the growth spurt, but with the chewing becoming more and more problematic and painful more so since there wasn’t any  supporting tooth beneath, the friction between the tooth and the cheek resulted in traumatic ulcers on and  off.. ⚡

I Was totally fed up with popping in antibiotics and pain killers, So decided to get it done with 😟

Now siting at home nursing a swollen jaw, surviving on bland liquids I feel like a patient.. All pasty faced Popoye like.😪😪

Immediate Post Op I had transient diplopia ( double vision) 👭🙈and dizziness 🌀 due to the anaesthesia.💉😨

image

Now I realised how my patients who complain  of diplopia actually feel. 😒

So everything is like a learning process, a lesson in disguise or in plain simple words, I am trying to find positivity in the negative things, atleast I like to think of it that way 📝  ( Neethu and her Gyaans you might think 😰)

Now I am sure, when a patient comes to me and I am busy examining his/her diplopia, I would know exactly how they feel.

So I guess I will be more patient doing their Hess and Diplopia  chartings. 📈📉

Its like a lesson to self,
Rather a  lesson well learnt.. 👧
In short Wisdom gained 💁 with the loss of a Wisdom tooth..;)

Pssst: Thoughts to  continue over in the next post… 😛
Until then I keep smiling minus my Wisdom Tooth.. 😄
Thank God it’s not my Incisors..  (Just imagine 😨 Noooooooooooo that’s like a total disaster🙈🙈🙈)
