Suggest Remedy For Chest Throbbing After Tooth Extraction

Posted on Tue, 25 Aug 2015

Question: my son just had teeth surgery on Thursday which all his teeth was extracted. He is on antiobiotics for 7 days but now he is complaining about that chest/heart throbbing.

Answered by Dr. Mahesh Kumar T S (26 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Antibiotics induced gastritis, Antacid like ranitidine

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
As far as the heart burn or throbbing is concerned, it is secondary to the antibiotics which has resulted in gastritis. Nothing to be panic, you can take a course of antacids like ranitidine for 3-5days. If the problem does not solve after this medication then consult a general physician and get it evaluated. Do not consume spicy food. Drink lot of water.
I hope I have answered your query. If any queries are there, reply me back. Take care
