I got surgery a few days ago

[Seb]

Dropped something heavy on my big toe a bit back, and the nail didn't take to that too nicely.
You will now open a picture of my Shaq-sized feet, with a bandage over my toe.

Naturally, I texted everybody about it (surgery took place around noon).

Any of you guys ever gotten surgery, and for what reason?

When I was 5 at Disney world, I stuck my head out the monorail and a nail almost ripped my forehead off.


I hardly remember it.

Ouch man, never really gotten myself hurt bad enough for a actual surgery, maybe stitches yeah.

Hope you're guud.

When I was very little ( 1 - 3, can't remember) I was chasing a dog and I fell and hit my eye in the corner of a coffee table. I almost lost my right eye. There is still a scar there, you can only see it if my face is red from crying/blushing etc

When I open my mouth all the way, I feel some slight resistance at the back of my lower jaw by my wisdom teeth. Sometimes it just locks up. Should I be getting them removed?

They run the risk of being impacted if you can already feel them getting in the way. That's what happened to mine. The tooth hits the jaw bone, and pushes. It causes the gums to swell and can be quite painful (mine would bleed all the time).

Appendix taken out.
Only time.

They just pull out my back molars, so my wisdom teeth could grow... couldn't eat for a couple days.

I got all 4 of my wisdoms taken out last November with just local anesthesia, so I was awake the whole time. 

The actual operation isn't bad.  The pain killers messed me up the most.

Also it sucks cause you can't eat hard food for a while, it hurts.

I had my 4 wisdom teeth out about a month ago. Deep anesthetic + long lasting freezing for me, ended up not being able to swallow [the painkillers they gave me]
The anesthetic was nice nice though; fell asleep without noticing and woke up when it was over without those freaky morphine dreams, so that was a plus.
