Help me with my toothache please!?!


Question:

Help me with my toothache please!?

It hurts so much. it's been about four day with this dreadful pain. I have not slept well these past few days. i've had maybe 10 hours of sleep in the past four days. I taken tylynol, motrin. exedrine, orajel, and even vicadon, nothing has worked for me. the only thing that seems to calm the pain is sipping cool water holding it on the side with the pain, and spitting it out when it gets warm. I've done this all day and night for four days. I really am sick of doing this but the pain is unbarable, but the pain completly disapears while i do this. I'll be going to the dentist tomorrow. the strange thing is that i have a really bad half broken cavity on the right side but the pain is on the unbarable on the left side. the tooth take really causes all the pain has been filled about a year ago. If i don't do my cold water method, the pain spreads to the bottem side of the jaw, my ear, my cheek. I am tired of spitting water allday..... Any remedies i can do just until i got to the dentist?


Answers:

If the tooth that is hurting has already been filled, then it sounds like the nerve underneath the filling has become infected and you will need a root canal. Unfortunately you probably will not get relief from cloves for this. The only thing that will stop the pain is having the nerve removed which means you need a dentist. If you can't wait until tomorrow you could try looking for an emergency 24 hour dental service in your area and calling them straight away. I know from experience that the pain is terrible and anything you take for it just doesn't work.
