A dry socket or a hot pocket??

So...a week ago I had my bottom left wisdom tooth pulled, and like my mom says...nothing is ever easy with me!! Of course I get to be one of the lucky few (5%) who develop a condition called a dry socket (or a hot pocket...lol mom). What on earth is it?? It is...
"A painful condition following a tooth extraction caused by a blood clot that does not properly fill the empty socket, leaving the bone and nerves underneath exposed to air and food...causing severe pain, and delaying the healing process."

Yayyyy Me!!!

Get out of here wisdom teeth....who needs ya?!?! Hit the road!!!!
