If you leave gauze in your mouth before going to sleep, you may choke on it. Make sure you’ve carefully taken out all the gauze the dentist left in your mouth before you lay down to sleep. As long as at least half an hour has passed since your wisdom teeth extraction, it is safe to remove the gauze from your mouth. You will most likely be in a lot of pain after your surgery, especially on the first day. Pain medication is essential for dulling the pain long enough for you to fall asleep.  Follow all dosage instructions when taking pain medication. Take your pain medication before the anaesthetic has worn off (roughly 8 hours). This will make it easier for you to manage any discomfort caused by your surgery.  Being under continuous pain medication will also help you to get more restful sleep. It’s important to keep your mouth hydrated and prevent additional bleeding by drinking cool water. However, do not eat or drink anything that causes discomfort in your mouth; rather, wait until your discomfort has subsided and drinking is tolerable.  Avoid drinking with a straw for at least a week after your surgery.  Don’t drink hot fluids or eat hot food during your recovery. Only eat or drink soft, cool foods and fluids as tolerated. Holding an ice pack to your cheek will dull the pain in your gums and make it easier for you to fall asleep. Ice your cheek near the extraction site for up to half an hour before going to bed.  Make sure you wrap the ice pack in a cloth before applying it to your face. If you’re planning to take a nap for half an hour or less, you can sleep with your ice pack on your cheek. However, avoid sleeping with the ice pack for longer periods, as it will leave your cheek feeling uncomfortably cold. Never apply heat to this area after your extraction surgery. This may dislodge the blood clot formed in your wound and cause you to start bleeding again. The bleeding and pain will make it harder for you to fall asleep. If your mouth begins bleeding and you apply gauze to the wound, be sure to not go to bed with this gauze still in your mouth. Wait until the bleeding has stopped (at least 30 minutes) before removing the gauze and going to sleep.

One-sentence summary -- Remove any gauze in your mouth. Take pain medication as prescribed by your dentist. Drink cool fluids as comfort allows. Put an ice pack on your face to decrease the swelling in your gums. Avoid brushing your teeth, rinsing your mouth, or touching the wound.

Q: Sarcoptic mange usually causes frantic itching. The dog may relentlessly scratch or chew at its skin to relieve the itch. The dog's skin, irritated from the constant scratching and biting, can easily become infected. The itching can even be so severe that it distracts the dog from necessary behavior like eating, drinking, and resting. Severe cases of sarcoptic mange that result in secondary infections from bacteria or yeast can cause a white, crusty surface to form on the dog's irritated skin, though this does not occur in all cases. In addition, dogs with severe secondary infections will also often suffer weight loss, run a fever, and/or have enlarged lymph nodes. Localized demodectic mange, the least serious variety, usually results in one or two "thin" or bald patches in the dog's hair. Usually, this small patch will not appear inflamed or irritated and will not cause serious itching. If a case of localized demodectic mange does not go away on its own, it may eventually spread to the rest of the dog's body, resulting in generalized mange. The dog will develop numerous thin or bald patches over its body. Existing patches may grow to about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. The skin in the patches may become red, scaly, and/or crusty. This skin irritation can cause the dog to scratch at its skin, which can sometimes lead to more serious infections. These secondary infections will lead to similar symptoms as those in sarcoptic mange cases — fever, weight loss, swollen lymph nodes, etc. Some select cases of demodectic mange cause a condition called demodectic pododermatitis. This occurs when the mites that cause mange become deeply embedded in the dog's feet, where they are very difficult to remove. This condition most often presents itself in the form of swollen, irritated feet. It is usually worst around the nailbeds and often accompanied by a secondary infection. One of the ways to detect a case of mange on your dog is to find mite bites on yourself. When the type of mites that cause sarcoptic mange come into contact with a human, they can cause red bumps similar to mosquito bites. Luckily, these almost never become serious. However, seeing these symptoms after being around a dog that can't stop scratching itself is a strong indication of sarcoptic mange. Note that humans cannot get the type of mites that cause demodectic mange. Itching or patchy hair loss are also symptoms of other underlying health issues, such as allergies, hyperadrenocorticism  (Cushing's disease), diabetes, hyperthyroidism, and parasite infection. Therefore, it is important to consult your veterinarian about the problem in order to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.
A: Look for intense itching. Check for hair loss. Note the extent of bald spots or hair loss. Inspect your dog's feet to see if they're swollen or irritated. Look for patches of red, irritated bumps on yourself or others in your household. Note that the signs of mange could also be signs of other, possibly serious, conditions.

Article: For most people, it will probably be easiest to have the needle threader in your dominant hand. If you're right-handed, for instance, you'll hold the tool in your right hand, while left-handed sewers will use their left. You’ll have much more coordination that way, which will allow you to focus on manipulating the small items you’ll be working with.  Make sure you’re gripping the needle so that the eye is pointing upwards. Those with unsteady hands may find it helpful to stabilize the needle using a pincushion or piece of cork. The larger object will hold the needle in place while you're threading so that you won't have to. It may take a few attempts to get the two pieces lined up correctly. Push the threader until the needle rests in the shallow groove next to the base. This will keep it from accidentally slipping out.  If you’re having trouble getting the threader loop through, turn the needle slightly so you can see the opening a little better. You may need to push the threader gently to force it through the eye of a smaller-sized needle. The wire threader loop will give you a much larger target to aim at. Once you’ve got the thread inside, pull the loose end to continue feeding it through. Needle threaders take the imprecision out of threading by working in reverse. Instead of guiding the thread straight through, the threader allows you to anchor it in place, then pull the needle around it. Pull the loose end back on itself so that it runs alongside the length of the thread. Gather up both ends between the thumb and forefinger of your free hand. Be sure to create enough length to keep a secure grip on the folded thread. You’ll load the threader the same way whether you want to work with single or double thread.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Hold the threader in one hand and the needle in the other. Insert the wire threader loop through the eye of the needle. Guide the end of the thread through the threader loop. Double the thread over on itself.
