Suggest Treatment For Difficulty During Swallowing

Hello Doctor,

My grandfather is 94 years old. No BP, no sugar. Very healthy person. But 2 weeks back his upper jaw wisdom tooth was extracted. Now, he is in deathbed as he is struggling to drink even water. He feels that the whole throat is infected. Gave drips to him for 3 days. But, now veins are not accepting it. What to do now ? He is harding drinking or eating anything now. He is urinating well. All the systems are functioning fine. Senses are working well. Able to recognize people well and even talk to the dear ones. Any suggestions to keep alive and live peacefully for few more days.
