Wisdom comes at a price, but in my case it came with pain too. It was lying in my tiny, sprouting tooth for ages in dormant mode and suddenly decided to popup. For a couple of days I sort of enjoyed it, but after a while it started demanding my full attention. Had to visit a doctor for the first time in US. If you are here and haven't yet seen a doctor, I tell you are lucky. Advancement causes perversion and medical system in US is a perfect example for that. Imagine you are deep engrossed in pain and have to call a doctor first for an appointment. And if you are lucky to get the same day appointment, a big obligation. In india, I never had to care about getting an appointment. Anway I took the day off and went with Sumi to see the doctor. After a cursory examination, I was advised to part away with my wisdom asap that too at a cost of a couple of thousand dollars. But guess, I am wise enough not to decide to part away with it, unless I am forced to. Anway doc was kind enough not to charge me just 'coz my insurance wasn't good for her.
Wonder why people call it a wisdom tooth. Can anyone enlighten me on this so called wisdom? BTW who says wisdom lies in gray hairs, for me it lies in teeth :)
