pain relief how to stop tooth pain fast - #23526
I am in a bit of a panic here, woke up middle of night with this awful tooth pain and I just can't take it anymore. I did try using an ice pack, but it really didn’t help much. I read online about different forms of pain relief for tooth pain and saw some folks mention things like clove oil, which I don't have, or even just taking some pain meds–but is there anything I can do how to stop tooth pain fast? I’ve got this throbbing that’s seriously making it hard focus on anything else, like I can’t even think! It’s been going on for a few days, and honestly, I’m freaking out because I can't really get to the dentist till next week. I dont know if that's okay to wait or if I'm being silly by not moving for an emergency visit. I tried rinsing my mouth with salt water and it felt a little better for a moment, but then the pain just came crashing back! Anyone know of any home remedies or quick ways to find some pain relief that really work? I just need to know how to stop tooth pain fast before I lose my mind! Any other tips would help, even if it’s just to keep me from going totally nuts till I see a professional. Thanks!
