How Can Tooth Ache Be Treated?

Hello so I have been suffering from tooth ache for the past couple of weeks and tonight it has been worst than ever and nothing seems to be working, and I am in fear that I have over dosed in fact I’m pretty certain I have, I have consumed 7 ibuprofen, 3 anadin extras and melted 3 and a half anadin extras onto my tooth, I google some symptoms of an overdose and I think I have some, what do I do?

Hi.


Thanks for the query
Yes, you have taken a lot of painkillers and if it has been taken within a single night then it can be an overdose [ please mention the doses]. If you have already started having symptoms of overdose then it should be an alarming sign.
You should immediately consult an Emergency room and get yourself checked.
The vitals needs to be monitored, the doses that you have taken will be checked and in case if the doses are too heavily taken then you needs to be admitted and proper management should be done to excrete the drugs out out the body using i.v lines and injectables.
Do not delay to avoid any medical emergency.

Hope this helps.

Regards
Dr. Honey Arora, Dentist
