Suggest Treatment For Soreness And Numbness In Upper Lip Caused By Anesthesia
Hi there! My sons tooth was hurting last Friday, through out the weekend on a scale from 1-10 it was a 10+we were able to see the dentist on Monday. They said that his filling had fallen out, so they injected him 5x with the anesthesia. As the days follow his top lip is still numb and clothing, and it is 5-6x it s regular size!!! We took him back to the dentist, they said he had an allergic reaction,that was Thursday! Today is Sunday evening and it is still clotted, swollen, numb, and soar!!!! What do we do now!!!

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern such allergic effects usually subside within the couple of days some time it may take little long time but this will go away nothing to worry about this, at the most antihistamine can be given "Livocetrizine 10 mg twice a day, take care and have nice day.
