This has been a weird couple of days. Not something I would want to go through again.

Good that you got in so quickly. They can develop really fast. I had a root canal fail and I ended up with blood poisoning. Multiple high level antibiotics and pain meds. They had to cut into my jaw to drain as much as they could. Eventually just had the tooth pulled. I don't bother with root canals anymore. Just pull them.

Once you finish the Antibiotics Karen, start taking a pre-biotic. Unfortunately, they kill off all bacteria which knocks the immune system to crap. Tooth ache is crap an abscess is a nightmare. Takes 72 hours for antibiotics to really kick in so, hopefully you'll then be able to stagger the pain killers to work for longer.

Dental abscesses are no joke. One of my co-workers had one & ended up in the hospital for a week with blood poisoning. She had a piece of popcorn that was stuck in her tooth, under the gum line that started all the problems. I floss & brush religiously now.

Tooth abscess friends! 👋 had to have a root canal last week, not too bad in the end. I can recommend propolis capsules and salt water rinses. Both have helped me zap the infection and recover. Feel better soon xox

I feel for you, Karen. My doctor descibed abcess pain as "commanding"---ie it takes over your life. Well done for being so brave.

It literally does take over,, I couldn't focus on anything else,, I used salt and paracetamol to ride it out,, it eventually burst and it's the greatest feeling I've ever had,, it was almost two weeks of it and i mentally drained by the end.

Hi Karen! I was just thinking about you. I've had those abcesses and they are straight from that fiery hole. Glad it is getting less painful. I've always battled with bad teeth. Genetics. I can't afford dentures. Yikes! Here's to a quicker recovery!

Poor you ! I sympathise, been suffering with a gum infection myself and the pain is awful. I treat it with salt mouthwash and painkillers, (over the counter - forget about getting anything else !) no chance of getting dental treatment here ! you were lucky to get straight in. Don't worry about eating, as long as you are getting plenty of fluids.

Don't know if you have Amosan over there, but it does help with the tenderness as does diluted peroxide rinses or salt water rinses. I am going next week to get a root canal. My dentist and I had been fighting a tooth trying to save it for the last 7 months, but we lost the battle. Next step, root canal and a cap. Still coming out cheaper than an implant if the root canal and cap will hold. Brushed my teeth in December and suddenly found a wobbly tooth, but no pain at that time. Not the case as of now. Tomorrow is 4th of July here, and I will not be partaking of any of the bbq. Hope you get to feeling better soon!
