Drank through a straw after wisdom teeth removal...?

[sarahlam81]

Ok, so I got my wisdom teeth taken out yesterday morning.
And yesterday, like two hours later,
i was super hungry so i drank yop (liquified yogurt) through a straw...twice...
And now i know about the dry socket thing and im freaked out--!!!
I've rinsed my mouth tons of times with salt water, but im still worried that i might get dried sockets.
How do i know if i have them, and what are my chances of getting them?

you will know if you have a dry socket when your mouth is hurting in excruatating pain. if you do it again then most likely you will develop a dry socket. just try not to drink out of a straw for the next week or so
