Don't see a question: Follow your dentist's written instructions after extraction. Avoid strenuous activity to include heavy lifting. Just plan to take it easy. Avoid activities that create suction such as smoking or sucking from a straw. Don't swish vigorously. Avoid alcohol ; hot beverages. A soft or liquid diet would be good. Your dentist/ oral surgeon likely provided you w gauze to apply pressure with if you bleed.
