Tooth Ache relief?

Question

I have an infection under a tooth and my face is swollen. Saw a dentist yesterday who prescribed antibiotics and told me told me to take Tylenol for pain (I could be pregnant) but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Anything else I can take that may help ease the pain while I wait for the antibiotics to start working?

Answer 1

I have heard clove oil works really well for tooth ache, I think you could probably get it at a local pharmacy or health food shop. Just check it doesn't interfere with your antibiotics or anything.

Answer 2

Why not go back to your dentist and ask another treatment and explain to him/her that it didn't work the first one he/she gave...It is more best to attest whats the next cure than finding it to other.
