I just got braces today and since then, I have been in lots of pain. The first day I got them, they didn't hurt at first then later, they really hurt to the point when I cried and cried.
I couldn't really eat anything except yogurt, mashed potatoes and ice cream, my parents became concerned and also angry that I couldn't eat anything else! Yesterday, I hardly could sleep because of my braces, and I kept on crying and putting wax and having Calpol (even though this didn't really help)
Today, the pain got better but I couldn't eat anything, not even breakfast cause my back teeth were really hurting so I just had a yogurt all day. And mashed potatoes and chicken (I think the chicken made the pain worse..)
I just need to know when the pain will ease, hopefully tomorrow??
I miss food and eating it and I don't want to starve because of my braces so.. please let me know.
