Brief Answer:
Need different medicine

Detailed Answer:
Hiii First of all thank you for approaching us with your query. Iread through your query. I suggest you to please take amoxicillin 500 for 5 days thrice daily and also meftal forte also thrice daily for 5 days. Reduce having sweets n sticky food. Alsotry avoiding too hot or too cold food stuffs. Dowarm salt water gargle in the area of toothache. Please send me the pics of the tooth affected and also any xray reports if taken for that tooth. Thereason why I told to stop both ceph and erythromycin is that since you changed the medicines in between a dosage period there can be tolerance of bacteria towards both so it might not be able to reduce infection. Thats why I suggested you to take these medicines. And one more thing while taking the medicines which I told(any medicines for that matter) the pain may not stop with first dose itself it takes minimum 3 days of dosage to reduce the pain. So please be patient and finish the dosage of 5 days then see the difference. Hope you understood what I meant. Thank you and have a healthy day. Dr Rohit

Brief Answer:
Ok continue erythromycin

Detailed Answer:
Hiii, thank you for your followup query. Iread through it. I must say that if amoxicillin doesnt work for you then continue with erythromycin but please finish the full dosage. Dotake antiinflammatory analgesic also. Like meftal forte . It will reduce the pain and inflammation caused by the infection. Also follow the instructions like avoiding sweets and sticky food, too hot or too cold food stuffs. Do warm salt water gargle concentrating on the tooth with pain. Follow these along with medicines pain will be subsided. Once it subsides please meet the dentist and get the rootcanal treatment or extraction done. Because the reason for infection should be treated. Otherwise the infection and pain can come again and again. Taking medicines again and again wont be good for body. Hope you understood what I meant. Please review my answer so that I can improve my answering for future queries. Thankyou and have a healthy day. Dr Rohit
