Hi Paul,
It's ok, I'm aware of the risks, so I went to the dentist and I'll have to go a few time's more.
I'm playing for half a year now, first on a rented didge, now on a didge I bought. Looking back, I got the pain when I started playing the rented one. I thought it had to do with my mouth adjusting to the vibrations. Pain went away after a few days. Came back when I started to play the new didge, pain was much heavier.
So now I think I caught the inflammation (bacteria) from someone else playing the didge before me. And of course I hadn't visited a dentist for many years, so the bacteria found a welcome home.
Oh well, lesson learned, I won't play on someone else's didge, and nobody gets to play mine...
But, though no substitution for treatment, in this case blowing the didge seems a pretty good substitution for painkillers.
Bert
