when can i wash my hair after tooth extraction
Hi, can you help me with something even though it's not about math?
Hello! Sure, while my main area of expertise is math, I'll do my best to assist you with your question. What do you want to know?
I recently had a tooth extraction and I am a bit unsure about when it's safe to wash my hair. Do you have any information on that?
Normally, personal hygiene practices like washing hair shouldn't directly affect your tooth extraction. However, it's best to avoid any rigorous activity, including bending over, for 24 hours after the surgery to avoid dislodging the clot that forms in the extraction site. So you can probably wash your hair as usual, but be gentle and try to avoid any excessive movement. Do consult with your doctor or dentist to be sure.
That sounds reasonable. I would definitely take care to not dislodge the clot. Thanks for the info. I didn't know that before.
You're welcome! It's important to take it easy post any surgery. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Take care of yourself!
