Damn root canal...

I have terrible teeth and I have had numerous root canals.

If it was really infected, it could hurt for a couple days after.

Did they have to cut your gums a lot? If so it could be that your gums are just a little inflamed.

If he is offering to give you free vicodine, then I'd take him up on that offer.

should have had that sumbitch pulled like I did... twice...

This!

When I was told I needed a root canal I asked what all was involved. When I found out what the success rate was I opted for them just pulling the tooth.

Hope you feel better soon!

Some soreness is not unusual several days out.

Still, I would make sure to have a follow up appointment just to be sure everything is healing normally.

Also, don't make the mistake of not doing the final restoration that will cover the root canal treated tooth.

Otherwise, in a few years you will be joining the geniuses in the "just pull it" crowd anyway, minus the money you spent on the RCT.

I had my jaw surgically replaced with a metal plate with sharpened steel teeth. I refused anesthesia, and crammed the prescription for Demerol down the Dr.'s throat. I then ate a bowl of in-shell walnuts, and gnawed on some tungsten steel bars to pass the time. Man up already!

Yes, it can hurt for a day or two... you just had a tooth nerve forcefully removed. Just take the pain pills, you'll be ok. If it gets worse call your Dentist.

      Well if you are gonna put it like that I probably would have to agree with you.  We’ll see how it goes. I am kind of rooting for seeing some Picket this year just for a change up. I root for a change up every year though lately.

      OK honestly I don’t identify like that but if I did I would think about being the first raised on TV generation (bad), we were probably latch key/before the term was invented - because I was raised by a single working parent, stuff like that. No baby sitters until after dark. Afternoons you just waited for an adult to show up. We were the bussing generation where they tried out their social engineering and forcing the races together in school (good and bad in that), and definitely the first bunch to have to deal with the threat of the big bomb going off. I, like everybody else was taken out in the hallway at school and taught how to and where to sit and receive my radiation dose if someone nuked us. And then they killed our president right in front of us. That is probably the most destabilizing thing that gets the least attention. The atomic bomb and the potus killing.  Around t(e same time we had the Beatles and music becoming a youth thing, with the youth gaining economic power they still have today, and top it off with a good memory of childhood - all tne Coke bottle caps had pictures of NFL players in them. We collected them. I particularly remember Mick Tinglehoff Minnesota Vikings lol. Complete with flattop haircut. We had pro football before there was ever a super bowl and in those days baseball was the king of sports in the US.But football was coming for them. And soccer was what weird funny talking foreigners did lol.

      When Kenny Pickett's arm looks noticably zippier than your starting QB you know problems are ahead.
