Hi all
I am having a tooth removed tomorrow
I know I won't be able to run for a couple of days. Am doing vlm 2 weeks on sunday, am worried it won't have healed in time. Any one had a tooth removed 2 and a bit weeks before a marathon. Will I be ok
Thanks Paula

I had a wisdom tooth out a couple of weeks ago. That afternoon, I went on a brisk walk. The next day I ran seven miles. Mind you, it didn't really stop bleeding for four days .
Just saying, you'll be fine.
You'll be fine for the marathon though. I was back to work in 2 days and fine within a week.
Did you manage to eat solids afterwards?
I found it annoying enough trying to keep crunchy bits away from one side of my mouth. Can't imagine trying to avoid both sides, top and bottom .
When I was younger I had 4 out and went out and played football in the afternoon. No pain at all but plenty of blood! It was fine by the following day. Could heal a broken leg in 2 weeks, you'll have no issues
