I had six teeth out last wk and was given 20 Tylenol for pain and they are gone..do you think i should ask for a few more as it is still hurts especially where the stitches are. I was one amoxicillin 500 4 time s a day before they were pulled but then still hurt
Thanks

Hello, Nanc! How are you?

It is normal for the sockets to remain sore for awhile, after extractions.

Whether or not you ask for more pain medications is up to you. How severe is it?

The FDA classifies Tylenol 3 as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
