How long will this tooth pain last?!
Question:
How long will this tooth pain last?
Help. I am scared. I have an abcessed tooth under a crown on my molar. I went to the dentist on tuesday, and now it is Thursday night, or Friday morning and I am still in agony. I have antibiotics and pain killers, but I am taking motrin every couple of hours. I have never hurt like this, and my jaw is even a bit swollen. I have a root canal on Tuesday, will I be in this much agony until then? does it hurt so bad because it has a crown over it? Please give me suggestions. I am tired of hurting and crying... Going through childbirth was better than this.
Answers:
The pain will go away soon, and, the swelling will subside: try some clove oil for the pain, it works!
