Hello!Thank you for posting here.

These medications cannot cause pain in the limbs.Take Doxy-1 for three days one in the night.Get complete scaling done.Maintain good oral hygiene.Go for a proper brushing technique.Your hygienist can help you in the brushing technique after evaluation of your teeth and gums.
Apply sensoform gum paint over the gums thrice daily.Use chlorhex oral rinse daily till you get the scaling done.
