i'm 40 years old and just had ALL my teeth extracted in one go. The pain is excruciating. Any tips for pain relief? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I had 8 teeth pulled at once, many years ago. I couldn't take Tylenol 3s as they made me sick. I did my best with ibuprofen and acetaminophen (one Motrin, one Tylenol extra strength). My father kept me distracted as much as possible. His advice was to keep your mind distracted as it can help with the pain.
