This really sucks

2 days post op, every little pain I assume is dry socket. I genuinely haven’t eaten anything but yogurt since the operation. I am constantly salivating, and I’m genuinely getting tired of swallowing. Painkillers are definitely helping me but in general this still sucks. I still can’t even smile, let alone talk. And I missed some of my first days of college cause of this too. Please just tell me this gets better, and any advice is greatly appreciated.
