I can't think what to title this one so I'll just mark it as Untitled Blogs if possible.
Last Monday, I started to have a swell on my left cheek that freaked my sisters out. My older sister told me to go see a doctor but I refused at first and started to use the ice packs to lessen the swell. On the next day, my mom called and told me to go to the doctor about it in which I can't say "No" to her and I told her to go tomorrow if it continues. Wednesday, I went to the doctors to assess the swell I had and turns out that it's Trigeminal Neuralgia, that cases the muscle of my cheek to expand and starts to swell. Then she gave me prescription meds that I had to show to my older sis and it was all up to me whether I take the meds or not.
Thanks me to being they hesistant type over anything sometimes, I decided not to and go back to the usual ice therapy. They bought me a small thermal gel just place my cheek there perfectly. Eventually it's starting to work well so I kept using it to my cheek.
Present day, it's almost getting back to normal and will try to use it one last time before tomorrow to mark it one week. Probably gonna ask one of my sisters later to check on my cheek and see. But for now, I'll take it easy and look at myself even more carefully.
