I Have A Pinched Nerve In Neck, Took A Muscle
Question: I have a pinched nerve in neck, took a muscle relaxer, started getting tired went up to brush my teeth, and it was icy hot!!! I spit out and flushed with water right away, I do not believe I swallowed any. I flushed and flushed with water then actually brushed my teeth and listerine. Anything else I need to do? Will I be ok? I am losing my mind apparently:(
Brief Answer:
Hope you have a good health
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for your question. Hope I can be of help to you today. What kind of muscle relaxant medicine do you take? It could be a medical side effect that can cause you to get tired and feel sensitive in your mouth. Make sure you do not have any pain or infection in your mouth otherwise you should see a doctor if the symptom is still consistent. Meet a physiotherapist to help with your neck pain. You can try pain killer medicine and Physiotherapist instead of muscle relaxant medicine.
I hope that It can help you, and please let me know if you have any clarification or questions about that, and I would be welcome to discuss it with you further. I hope you have good health.
Best regards,
Dr. Heang Chan Raksmey, General and Family Physician
