Son says his tooth hurts?!
Question: Son says his tooth hurts?
My son who is 6 has been complaining about his tooth hurting for a few days but I haven't had the money to take him to the dentist, and his appointment now is set for late next week. He just woke up (its 11 p.m. where I live now) crying saying that his tooth hurts. Is there something I can do to relieve the pain for tonight so I can take him to an emergency place tomorrow? Thanks

it's this "cream" like thing that you put on the tooth... it really works
Maybe it's an infection. Give him Ibuprofen (motrin) to help with the swelling and pain. Goodluck, hope he feels better soon.
I think it may be a cavity.
you could perhaps use teething gel to help numb it. hope he is ok.
