DailyDi Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Fighting a tooth/gum infection that is trying to spread to my ear. First time I have been in pain that even Codeine could not dull! Got almost no sleep as the socket throbs when I lay down. Link to comment
Elfy Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Ouch. Maybe time to see a whole load of doctors until someone gives you some really powerful stuff! Reminds me of when I have a Kidney stone and nothing but the most powerful stuff can touch the pain :( Link to comment

It's amazing for numbing tooth pain AND getting rid of infections. Just put a drop or two on a q-tip and rub it on the tooth and surrounding gum area. Link to comment

FullyLoaded Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I just had the same problem 2 weeks ago but it wasn't a root canal'd tooth. Link to comment
wetdiaper222 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Hugs. :) I have 2 teeth that I really need pulled. But I can't afford it at the moment. I've been putting up with the tooth aches that come every few months. Link to comment

FretaBWet Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Big Hugs Mike,. I've had a couple root canals and some teeth pulled so I can sympathize with your pain. Link to comment

Dentists usually want to get rid of an infection before pulling just so it doesn't spread. But, here's a hug. Link to comment

Demon-hunter Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 *BEAR HUG!* i think you need to see a dentist lol Link to comment
DailyDi Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Starting to get better. Def an infection as it spread to my cheek and ear before the antibiotics started to win the fight. Off prescription pain pills and down to just an NSAID to get rid of discomfort from the swelling. Link to comment

Giving your condolences won't make anyone actually feel physically better, but I do know that clove oil really does work. You should try this, it does help a lot. Link to comment
