Abscess Help!?

I have this killer abscess in my molar and I don't have insurance. I went to the er and they gave me penicillin and percoset but I took all the penicillin as prescribed and the pain is still there.





I went to the dental clinic and they said i have to see my family doc before they pull the tooth because my blood pressure is too high. So my fam doc gave me bp meds and now my pain won't cease in my tooth. I have already missed 4 days of work and I live alone so i can't miss much more work cuz i need the money.





So i have to call out again tomorrow and i don't know what to tell my boss and hopefully the dental clinic will extract my tooth even though my bp may be high, but i am takng the bp meds.





I am in agony! Any advice on what to do? What do i say to my boss? I have papers from the er and fam doc saying i was seen there. I drive for a living and can't drive on pain meds!

Abscess Help!?
Hi honey.





All I can think of is fill yourself with pain killers and take loads of *good* miulti-vitimans-and-minerals. [That get's rid of my absceses.]





I'll see if lI can think of something else and come back again.





Take more pain killers than the doc recomends. Much more. And normally drink doesn't work, but, honey, if the pain's too sore then use it to go to sleep.

Anyway, rinse your mouth with hydrogen peroxide and warm water a few times a day. 1 part HP and 4 parts water.


Or if you don't have any, put a few spoons of salt in a small glass of warm water and rinse a few times a day.


Take Motrin for the inflammation. Increase your vitamin C intake.
Reply:you need to get the tooth extracted as soon as possible bcuz if it abscesses again its more likely to get into your blood stream and if it does you could die. warm salt water a few times a day is very helpful for keeping the abscess from coming back
Reply:Ok try Dr. Tichersons It is a very strong mouthwash antiseptic that might help with the pain. It is so strong that you have to dilute with water, but you might not want to dilute to much since you are in so much pain. Try it- it has helped me before with bad tooth pain.
