Don't ice for longer than 24 hours because after that the ice will not help the swelling go down any further. That swollen size will be the size you are until you're healed. Make sure you DO NOT drink through a straw. You will get dry sockets which will hurt worse than you ever thought the wisdom teeth extraction did. (http://www.webmd.com/hw-popup/Dry-socket) If you keep bleeding from your wounds, place dry tea bags on them for 15 minutes. Other than that, enjoy the pain relievers and loaf on your couch for a few days.

I have no clue, but I had all four of mine out at the same time, and I never iced. I just took the medicine they gave me and drank ice water through a straw. It worked much better because it could get closer to the swollen areas.

ok so first of all it extremely is not any longer the semen that travels to the egg it extremely is the sperm. Semen is what the sperm are in whilst they arrive out. The sperm leaves the semen interior of a jiffy and travels into the womb. Then it travels by using the tubes to the place it expects the egg to be. that would take hours or longer based upon how properly the sperm swim and how at cutting-edge they flow. maximum sperm are no longer formed spectacular and that they wander off or swim around in circles or merely undeniable die before they get there. yet considering there are literally hundreds of them it is not in many cases a project. Sperm can stay as much as 5 days, yet 2-3 days is greater basic.
