Title: Swelling during recovery
Post by: hannahgw on May 21, 2016, 01:02:35 AM

Yesterday I had corrective surgery on my upper jaw. My upper jaw was set too far back and had to be moved by about 0.7mm. Obviously I was fully aware that the swelling in this operation is quite severe but I was just wondering if people who had experienced this had any idea when it at least starts to go down a bit? Thanks
