How Can Severe Toothache Be Treated?

Hello my name is Manuel Flores. My question is and I need an answer ASAP please lol but I was proscribed Ibuprofen 800mlg a pill obvs lol but the pain “tooth ache” was so bad they gave me
“Hydrocodone/acetaminophen” 5-300TB
And I took that at 10:30pm and right now it’s 12:17am. And pain have not gone away so I took the 800mlg ibuprofen but instead of 1 I took 2 so 1600mlg.
Should I try to throw this up right now or will I be a ok? I’m 6’0ft tall 320pnds
So..and it takes awhile for pain meds to give in. Like for example “they gave me 3 shots of morphine just to stop the pain when my appendix bursted. So yeah please let me know thank you

Hello,

As per your query, you have symptoms of a severe toothache which seems to be due to the presence of infection which has reached pulp. You have already taken so much medication. You should not do over dosage as it could lead to side effects.

I would suggest you visit dentist/ oral and maxillofacial surgeon once and get it examined completely and start treatment accordingly.

You should go for IOPA that is an x-ray of that tooth to check the level of infection and take the proper course of antibiotics. You should take Tramadol which is stronger than Ibuprofen along with Azithromycin.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
