I did this on the 13th, also thinking the pain wouldn't be that bad, only to not be able to sleep for three full nights - and I'm only on day 6!!!!! Does anyone have any idea of how long this excruciating pain is supposed to last? I honestly don't care about the swelling more than I care about being able to sleep at night. Also, any recommendations as to which over the counter meds to take to alleviate the pain? Any piece of advice on this one will be much appreciated. Thanks.
