I had my #2 molar removed about 5 hrs ago & sleep with a cpap (5-10) every night. i'm really worried about using it & hurting myself more... help?

CPAP: You shouldn't hurt yourself. Since it was five hours ago bleeding should be under control and there should be no issue using the CPAP

Wait: Till all bleeding has stopped before you use the CPCP. Once a blood clot has formed in the extraction area, the CPAP won't hurt you.
