How would I know

if I had a dry socket..???

I'm still swollen and am still in pain (def. manageable with pain meds)

Yesterday I did get out of the house a bit- and was able to do so w/o taking any pain meds- however last night I woke up @ 4am in really bad pain (specifically one "hole")

I'm ok now (again because I took pain meds)


Could I have a dry socket there- and the pain meds are "masking" the pain-

Or am I just still sore???
