Seeking Advice on Post-Extraction Care

Hi everyone,

I recently had a tooth extraction and am a bit uncertain about the best practices for post-care. I’ve been following the basic instructions: avoiding hard foods, using saltwater rinses, and taking prescribed pain relievers dental tooth extraction. However, I’m still experiencing some swelling and mild discomfort. Are there any additional tips or remedies that might help speed up recovery? Also, how long should I expect the swelling to last, and when is it safe to resume normal activities? Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!
