How can I release the pain of wisdom teeth?
Q. One of my widom tooth is hurting. I don't see anything wrong but a hole behind the teeth. When I open my mouth or swallow, it husts. What can I do except going to dentist?
A. 800 mg of ibuprofen every eight hours with food. this relieves inflammation as well as relieves pain. you can rotate this with tylenol 1000mg every six hours.
EXample: at 8am take the ibuprofen. you'll take that again @ 4pm. in the interim, you can use tylenol say -- @ 12pm then again @ 6pm.
don't use aleve (naproxen) and ibuprofen together. they're too close to being the same drug. don't use those on an empty stomach. don't use aspirin in case there is any potential bleeding problem. don't take too much tylenol. don't use tylenol at all if you have a known liver problem.
YOU CAN ALSO -- use ice on the outside of your face. Even suck on ice. if ice is too large to suck on, put it in a washcloth and crush it with a mallot (or bottom of a HEAVY coffe mug or meat tenderizer or hammer. ha!) and then place the washcloth with the crushed ice enveloped in it, in your mouth. but yes -- DENTIST!
most "COUNTY HOSPITALS" have a dental clinic that is free if you don't have health insurance. they usually ONLY do extractions, give antibiotics and pain relievers. it's first come, first served here in phoenix. it opens @ 6 AM here and i would tell my patients to show up @ 530AM to insure they would be seen (the line gets long) and hopefully, they can get in and out sooner than waiting in line all day and not being seen.
TMJ (jaw joint) problems can SEEM like wisdom teeth problems. if it's TMJ instead, sleep on your back - not sides or stomach, don't chew gum, relax your jaw (keep lips closed but teeth apart. it's hard at first and can make jaw muscles tired -- but it's usually less painful than the pain you're having now & you get used to doing it), and the same ibuprofen / tylenol / ice regimen will help! good luck!
