My mouth is full of blood. And I can't spit it out, because it needs to clot over THE HUGE HOLE IN MY SKULL WHERE MY WISDOM TOOTH USED TO BE.
So far I have a side of my face so tingly and anesthesied that I'm not even sure whether i'm biting my tongue or not, and yet I can still feel the slight sting that's characteristic of "hey, look, there's a hole in your skin".
There's a hole in my SKULL. D: And if there's one feeling I HATE, it's the crunching, slightly screechy sound/feel of a tooth breaking. *shudders*
Also, my neck is so tense and full of knots I can barely touch my chin to my collarbone. I need to teach my mom to do massages, or something.
... comparatively speaking, it wasn't as bad as I expected. Now let's see if the clot forms properly. D:
edit several hours later: Okay, now it's hurting a bit. More uncomfortable ache that AUGH HOSPITAL, though. I haven't taken any painkillers yet, so if that changes, I can fix it easily. ^^

(Anonymous) 2007-01-18 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)However since you can't spit it out, or drink from the sounds of it, check with your dentist or doc if you can use some cloath or gauze or /something/ to clean your tongue. And then maybe if you're lucky you can suck on a another bit soaked with water or juice or somesuch.
And /I'D/ give you a massage just to make you feel better, with no intent on peeking over your shoulder at ficcies or bribing you to write more. Really.
The in ability to move your neck much could be the musscles but could also be your joints, like when you really need to crack your knuckles and after you have more range of motion? This is not a proffesional diagnosis, but rather a personal one. After cracking my neck I get a few more noticable degrees.
You could try what I do. But, it freaks a hella lot of people out so I won't describe it *cuts out all the typing she did to describe it*
I find cracking your neck, esp. your upper neck that's bloody hard to get to any other way. The atlas and axis and C3, can help alot with neck pain and mobility.
I know neck pain and sometimes that's the only thing that can help (because I too, lack anyone to give me a massage ;-;)
But, I would SO give you a massage, or teach your mum a few things. *points at subject line* My School? The Swedish Institute. That's the bloody Harvard of Massage Therapy. *wiggles her magic fingers*

Using a wet cloth to clean my tongue sounds like a great idea, though, thanks. i'll try it. because, really, EWW. x_x
My back is always very tense, I must be the tensest person ever. I'm like a five feet tall ball of nerves and muscles. XD When my friends try to give me massages, they always end up stopping after 10 minutes because their hands hurt and they're barely making any progress. I have knots everywhere. XD *steals you so you can stand behind my computer chair all day* We could have a profitable mutual arrangement here... >D
*cuddles* thank you for the comment. ^__^
Re: *hugglelicks*
They are teaching us in class how to use our lower and core body strength to massage so we don't ruin our hands and get tired too quickly. We should be able to manage 8 hourish workdays in a spa when we graduate. (that's not to say we won't be Tired but...)
Unfortunetly I signed a leagally binding agreement that I would not massage anyone without supervision from a Licenced Massage Therapist--not even my family or friends. I could be kicked out if I do.
I'll get back to you on that deal in 18 months when I graduate and take the tests though. (fucking anatomy, nurology! WTF, really. On the other hand, Shiatsu, Swedish and one other massage modality of my choice, FTW!) n__n
In the mean time, knots are places where your musscles have tightened up (duh!) AND/OR (!!!) places where your fluids (blood, lymph, the intermembrane stuff..) have stagnated. So streach, do some mild exersize, and drink water.
What else..? Oh! If you can bully anyone into working on your limbs tell them to stroke/work towards your body. Veins are generally superficial to arteries and don't have the help of the heart to move the blood up against gravity and back to be refreshed.
And just to make you squirm and stare at your screen in yerning like you just read the best porn fic of your life: My off hand? Substainable five pound grip.
