Wisdom Teeth removed yesterday

I'm having horrific Marijuana cravings, as the title says my wisdom teeth were removed yesterday and I'm not quite sure what I can do to help suppress the cravings. I'm not positive how safe it would be to take a bong rip or two just to tide me over for the days coming. I've read topics where people have smoked right after their wisdom teeth and have not had problems, I'm just not sure if I would be better off to drink a couple beers to help suppress cravings or if I should just take a bong rip or two and hold that in for as long as I can so I can achieve my buzz. I do have tramadol, I'm just not sure how many I'd have to take to achieve a decent buzz. I need input fast before I cave in and end up with an air socket. Thank you
 
well when i got my wisdom teeth out i smoked right away

its not 'good' for your open wounds to have smoke gettin into them but another reason you arent suppose to smoke is because the intense suckin isnt good for the stitches n what not, my dr told me to be careful drinkin thru straws because of this, the first couple days after i pretty much just smoked my vape after cuz i didnt have to pull as hard n i figured vapors would be better then smoke for the open wounds

but it is just MJ, i understand bein a heavy smoker n the unpleasentness of the 1st few days not gettin high but you'll be fine without it

if you must just try not to power chief n suck real hard.

best of luck
 
I wouldn't drink alcohol because it suppresses the immune system, which you need to be fully active right now.

Smoking is really your only option, though it's not good for wounds at all. If you had a vaporizor it would be better.

Ideally you should abstain.
 
Cage, don't say it's weak. My father just passed away so smoking is my only way to cope. Don't be an ignorant asshole please. And thank you for the other replies guys.
 
Do not smoke for another 2-3 days. Passing a sooty stream of ash and other crap over an open wound will not help with the healing process. Gently boil some weed in milk and make yourself a cannabis infused hot chocolate. Be aware it may take a while to effect you but don't be tempted to make more, edibles have a habit of kicking your arse.
 
You can smoke if you want to, just know you'd be gambling with painful medical complications if you do. It's a gamble for a reason, though... You might have no problems whatsoever, or you could set yourself up for:


Dry Socket medical condition

You can actually take some black tea bags, roll them up, and stick them where the wisdom teeth were removed from, and bite down. Do this for a bit, then smoke with them in. There is a compound in the black tea that prevents the clot from being dislodged and also increases clotting, and also causes it to heal much much faster. It will prevent dry socket. I did this, and I was able to smoke, eat, and drink as normal.
 
As Jibult says the only danger of smoking after having your wisdom teeth removed it Dry socket. What puts you at risk of dry socket is sucking on stuff with your mouth like you do when you smoke a cigarette or drink through a straw. So smoking weed can cause possible dry socket, you just have to be careful about how you smoke.

Avoid things like joints or blunts cause you have to suck on the to get the smoke to pull through. After my wisdom teeth were removed I would pack very loose bowls so I didnt have to pull very hard on the bowl to get the smoke to come through. Also having someone give you shot-guns is really good.

Good luck.
 
Dude don't smoke after getting anything dental done. Wait for it to heal up then stuff your lungs with smoke as much as you want but not atm.
 
How long should I wait now tomorrow will be day 3 after surgery and I'm honestly not doing to well without my MJ. If I smoke tomorrow night will I be okay to take a few bong rips? Maybe I could have my girl fill it up and I could just clear it and have gauze in too? I really need to smoke.
 
cant you make edibles? do you have access to a vaporizer?

id rather be safe than sorry

The biggest danger of smoking anything after getting teeth pulled isn't the smoke itself (though it doesn't help to have hot smoke blowing over open wounds), rather, it's the pull/sucking on a joint or bong that can fuck your mouth up for a little while. I even remember being told to avoid drinking with straws when I had a few baby teeth pulled before getting braces when I was younger. I don't think dry socket is inherently dangerous or anything, it just sounds like a super painful experience from everything I've read and been told.

I'm with you on the edibles, though. 420toking, I remember somebody posting a really quick cannabutter recipe for small amounts of herb (like, single doses) that you might be able to find here in CD. I think it was in one of the firecracker threads or something titled "Easy Edibles with a Gram" or something to that effect. I don't think you'd want to take a bite out of anything crunchy so I'm thinking cannabutter might be the best way for you to find relief.
 
Try rolling up a blunt or joint and hitting that, my friend just got his out last week and drooled all over my bong... Don't be that guy
