Dental implants
This Monday i underwent dental implants and bone grafting ...it was a pretty bad experience .
Considering the review read on internet that there will be minimal pain but I'm suffering a lot .
The pain and swelling has increased a lot since yesterday morning . I'm taking some pain medication but they aren't helping much .
How do I get rid of swelling ?
Can I put ice on the swelling region ?
How long before I can start speaking normally and eat some solid food
please help ..

Implants and grafting differ for each patient, do not compare your condition with google review. Yes at times if the grafting was more and if implant procedure was little longer it can cause swelling etc but will settle down. You can keep ice ofcavoid hard foods but you can eat soft foods and open mouth as well

Soft foods and ice and medication as prescribed
