My jaw is wired shut and has plates in both sides. how do i eat?

Liquids w/ straw.: You obviously need to eat to heal, so it is important to get the proper nutrition. You cannot open your mouth or chew, so liquids are your only option. Consider buying protein powders weight lifters use to build muscle. You can also puree fruits and vegetables in a blender and get the vitamins and fiber you need. Place the straw between the cheek and the teeth and do small sips.
