Some additional steps that can alleviate pain include:
Applying cold compresses
Elevating your head while resting and sleeping
Avoiding strenuous activities
It’s also vital that you attend all follow-up appointments. These appointments give Dr. Brown a chance to track your recovery. She will make personalized recommendations to help you through the healing process as well.
