What Causes Swelling And Pain In The Cheeks Along With Stomach Upset?
I have an infection in MU mouth. My gum a Ned cheek are sore and swelling. MU dentist prescribed narco for pain. I have taken one and my stomach is upset. I think I have an infection and need antibiotics. Plan to call my dentist tomorrow. What do you think?
I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your dental issue.
It looks you are having a dental infection, acute pulpitis. For that, you need a course of antibiotics.
If I would have been your doctor I would have prescribed you Ofloxacin twice daily for five days and Ornidazole thrice daily for five days.
You can also use warm saline gargles. For stomach upset you need to avoid painkillers like non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Pantoprazole 40 empty stomach will be helpful in your stomach issue.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
