1. Does the osteotomy hurt?
It hurts to have a bone cutting operation. At present, bone cutting surgery is generally painless under anesthesia. The average patient will only feel pain during anesthesia injection, which is completely tolerable.
2. Does it hurt after osteotomy?
There will be some pain after osteotomy, because the bone has changed after osteotomy. Generally speaking, this kind of pain is tolerable and will improve itself with recovery.
3. How painful is osteotomy?
You can't feel the pain during the osteotomy, because local anesthesia blocks the nerve induction, and the whole osteotomy will only feel slight pain. This is normal, generally it will get better after surgery, and it will recover for a period of time after osteotomy.
4. Correct nursing to relieve pain
After osteotomy, correct postoperative care is helpful to alleviate the pain caused by osteotomy. Generally, you need to eat liquid food for about 3 days to reduce the damage to bones and masticatory muscles, then avoid laughing, massage your face, and insist on wearing a hood 1~2 weeks.
5. Sequela of osteotomy
Sequela 1: swelling and inversion of lower lip.
Because there is no mirror in the hospital, Si Rong doesn't know what she has become. When she was drinking water, the water flowed down her lips, only to find that her lips were swollen, turned over and even showed her teeth. After leaving the hospital, Si Long went to the hotel to register with an elastic bandage. The waiter saw her as if she had seen a ghost. The expert said: "Her condition should be nerve contusion and motor nerve injury."
Sequela 2: wound inflammation
Osteotomy is to cut a knife from your mouth. Due to improper diet, Sirong's face was swollen and she had to go to the hospital for treatment. Just after the thread was sewn, the doctor tried to squeeze the wound with a cotton swab, which made her cry. The famous doctor in plastic surgery nonsense: "The wound of surgery is in the mouth. Inadvertent diet leads to food residues entering the mouth and infecting the wound, so we should eat liquid food."
Sequela 3: There are many dimples on the chin.
It's been a long time since bone cutting and plastic surgery. As soon as Sirong speaks, she can see many dimples on her chin. Doctors believe that this is because of physical problems and poor postoperative recovery, which is surprising, but doctors say there is no need to worry too much. "As long as you choose a regular hospital, many consequences can be avoided."
Sequela 4: pulp nerve necrosis
After the osteotomy, Sirong felt that she had no feeling in the lower part of her face for several months. Finally one day, I had a toothache. When I went to the hospital, it turned out that the pulp nerve was necrotic and all four molars were rotten. I experienced another shocking moment when I saw my teeth. When I opened my mouth, I felt that my chin was going to fall off, and then I pushed it back after pulling out my tooth. Nonsense, it's still because of nerve contusion. "If the nerve is broken during the operation, it cannot be recovered."
