Have you ruled out any infections? Your mouth shouldn't still be so painful. I agree that too much ibruprofin is bad for your stomach. Have you tried Orajel or Ambesol to numb the area? It relieves the pain for a short time but it is better that popping pills. Maybe you can try that with Extra Strength Tylenol. It is safer for your stomach. Hope you feel better soon.

OUCH!!! Hope your mouth feels better real soon, maybe you should go back to the dentist, and tell him, he could give you perscription meds.

My dentist said to use Aleve. But... when I was a kid and had a tooth ache, my Mom would put Bayer Baby Asprin on the tooth and let it melt. (The ones that tasted like orange - do they even still make it?) I've been having a lot of dental work lately, too, and I hate, hate, HATE going to the dentist. If what happened to you were to happen to me, I'd be beating his door down for pain meds!! You know... wake me up when it doesn't hurt anymore! |
