What Causes Teeth Pain, Sore Neck And Headache?

I am a 23 year old female, been having teeth pain for 3 days after eating an oreo cookie, pain is located on left side on both upper and bottom teeth hard to tell which ones.. woke up the second day having sore neck, mild headache, and constant toothache. I took some ibuprofen, didn't help.. gargled warm salt water.. didn't help. I can't get to a dentist I don't have the funds, and don't really have enough to go get any other medicine. What else can I try to relieve at least the headaches and toothache so I can figure out how to get this all fixed. I can't sleep at night, I can't do much during the day because my head starts hurting and throbbing...

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The pain in the tooth could be arising from an infected wisdom tooth. usually infected wisdom tooth produces this kind of pain in the head neck and temporal area. you need to take a radiograph of that tooth and get it treated by extracting or RCT. Meanwhile you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500mg tid, metronidazole 400mg bid along with ibuprofen (if you are not allergic and sensitive to these drugs). do saline gargling. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
