Suggest Treatment For Tooth Ache

I have been to the dentist for a sore tooth that was recently capped. Everything looked fine. I then noticed a swollen lymph gland in my throat and went to my doctor who put me on antibiotics. It's been about 5 days and the tooth is still bothering me. What do I do now?

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. the pain could be because of the tooth infection if the root canal treatment has not been done for the capped tooth get it root canal treated. consult your oral physician for complete examination and rule out any gum infection around that tooth or neighbour tooth. mean while take a course of antibiotics and analgesics, do saline gargling. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
