The blood in your spit is more scary then it actually is. The spit makes it look like your bleeding more then you actually are. It felt like they removed half my jaw when I woke up. Don't sleep with those things in your mouth. Hopefully they gave you something for the pain. They gave me Hydrocodone and ibuprofen and they instructed me to take 1 and then the other 4 hours later, switching between the two. The worse part was It took me longer then expected to recover from the pain. They also messed up my lip when they did the surgery. So they gave me some stuff to heal it.
