Pain Relief For Wisdom Tooth Infection
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I have a wisdom tooth infection, and I am scheduled to have it pulled out in two days, since my dentist say that the infection has to be healed first. But the pain is excruciating! What can I use, to ease the pain, for the time being.

When I had my wisdom teeth removed I was prescribed Vicodin. Worked really well for me. If you talk to your dentist I'm sure they will prescribe you a proper medication. Good luck and let me know how it goes!

this site is not medical professionals to suggest a treatment and since you did not say what antibiotic you are taking I cannot check for interactions.

Most people generally just use Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen, if it is said to be okay by your doctor or pharmacist.

Have you tried calling your dentist to ask what you can use?
