Gum Grafting: Tips for receding gums? in Dentistry & Oral Hygiene ·
It really just comes down to the dentist you pick and how much work they actually do. The only real downside is when things don't go as planned—recession can still happen even after a graft during the healing phase. I went through it myself; first, they tried pulling my existing gum tissue down, which was a bust, so then we had to move on to a graft. Usually, there’s one appointment to take an impression for a protective guard—you'll need it to protect the stitches on your palate—and then a second appointment for the actual surgery.
Talking about pain is pointless, honestly. Everyone’s pain tolerance is different. You don't necessarily need antibiotics, just some chlorhexidine mouthwash. You can eat the next day, though I personally didn't touch a thing for 36 hours after mine, followed by a week of nothing but soft foods to "aid healing." Personally, I don't think it made any difference—I probably would have been better off just grilling a steak the very next day.
Living on a diet of mush is frustrating if that's the route you take.
Stem cell therapy for joints (Lipogems) in Health ·
I’m using 830nm wavelength red light therapy—for better or worse—on my meniscus. Ideally, I’d need some kind of scaffold where stem cells could actually regenerate the lesion, but that won't work without surgery to either lift the torn part or stitch it back together. Then again, none of that matters much once you find out you have hip dysplasia and realize what's coming for you.🎉

Dealing with hemorrhoids – any advice? in Health ·
Just stumbled upon this book about 30 minutes ago and had a quick look through.
Honestly, I’m pretty shaken up—sharing this because I deal with hemorrhoids myself, but apparently, that's the least of the issues they trigger or make worse—dietary fiber.

Looking for some The Sound-a vinyl. Just local pickups in the city area.

General Chat & Info Board in Martial Arts & Combat Sports ·
Does anyone actually know what the membership fees are at the Adriatic Muay Thai club? And I guess—if they’re even still taking people—are they still accepting recreational members?
Can someone give me the lowdown on what the training sessions are actually like—and everything else? I guess if anyone’s been there, they could share some first-hand info.
Looking for a specialist... in Health ·
I'm looking for a recommendation for a private urologist, general surgeon, or dermatologist—maybe even a multi-specialist clinic
given how sensitive the issue is.

Maybe try some propolis? There's this Hemopropin ointment—it's about $7 at any local CVS...🙏
It’s worked wonders for me so far—honestly, better than anything from Walgreens.
