Question:
I had my two lower wisdom teeth removed just over a week ago and the pain is almost excruciating. I went to the dentist yesterday and although he offered to put a dressing over the area, he highly suggested I put up with the pain for another three to five days. I initially had received a prescription of vicodin that helped significantly, but that is all gone. I don't really want to rely on those types of medication anyway. I've been taking tylenol extra strength as a sort of replacement pain killer, but its not enough. I've been having serious migraines as a secondary side effect of the surgery. Does anyone know what the best non-prescription medication is to get through the pain?
Answers:
Motrin or Advil is better for dental work.
PERCODAN!!
I would try Ibuprofen or Motrin. You can also try putting heat on your face, that should help relax your pain.
