Another Update!

So I am back with yet another update post on how I am doing with my new jaw! It will be 5 months in December!

Numbness:

The only numbness I have is on the right side of my jaw on the outside and its on the jawline with the bone. The inside of my mouth like my gums and parts of my teeth are still very numb as well, which I will probably have to live with for the rest of my life.

Swelling:

I personally thought all the swelling went a while ago, but I was wrong because my face has gone down again and I THINK that is all the swelling gone now.

Sensitivity to bones:

They say it is at least 6 months till the bones are completely fixed, so they are still quite sensitive and there are certain things I stay away from (in college specifically because I do a physical course). Also when I chew certain things like skittles or something that takes a little more strength then other foods, I feel a tingly sensation in my right cheek and the part that my jaw is numb on the jawline on the right side of my jaw, feels weird. If I tense my jaw for a small amount of time, it can really hurt afterwards which is bad because I do this without realising (never on purpose).

Other than that, I live my life as normal and I am still pleased with the results. The only thing is, sometimes I see myself in videos that are taken a little distance from me or photos and my face looks really chubby/swollen like a chipmunk so I don't know why this is, I am used to my face the way it is, but maybe I still look quite swollen to other people?! Haha, I don't care :').

I'll love you and leave you all with that...

I may be back...

But for now...

Goodbye readers xxx
