Suffering From Wisdom Tooth Pain.Hydromorphone Not Working. Can Take Numbutone For Pain?

Hello, I have been suffering from wisdom tooth pain for a couple of weeks.The pain is starting to trigger my sickle cell crisis. I am having pain from my temple to neck. I have tried almost everything for pain, even my prescription Hydromorphone( which is not working at all). Can I take Numbutone for pain and inflammation? or is there anything else that I can do until my dentist appt Monday!

Hello and welcome.

After reading your history i would suggest you to make a visit to your dentist.Please do not change the medication until you see the dentist,as you have medical history too.
wisdom tooth should be removed surgically as it is considered vestigeal.

presently you require clinical examination.Irrigation of the affected site along with a course of antibiotic and analgesics is required.

Hope it helps.

Thanks.

Take care.
