How Can Toothache Be Treated?
I have continuous pain in the teeth on the right upper side. It very much reacts when taking something hot like tea or coffee. but don't react in cold. It is become painful while taking food because if I start chewing then upper and lower teeth connect. Please suggest a medicine to remit the pain.

Hello,
The pain in the upper teeth when you are eating anything hot or chewing can be due to single or multiple decayed teeth. So, first of all you should consult a Dentist and get an x-ray of your teeth done.
Painkillers can provide only temporary relief so, for a proper management the cause has to be treated. For now, you can take painkillers like Ibuprofen or Ketorolac for relief. Brush your teeth with anti-sensitivity toothpaste.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
