Can Naprosyn Cure Gum Irritation Along With Pain And Swelling?
I have been having pain and swelling on the left side of my jaw, starting at the point where the jaw and ear meet. I went to my dr. who prescribed Naprosyn, he also noticed a little gum irritation. I feel tired and out of sorts and wonder if I have some type of infection. What should I do?

Hi! Welcome to HCM.
Pain and swelling is due to infection in the oral cavity. Naprosyn is a analgesic.
You must also take a full course of antibiotic to reduce any further progression of infection.
You must get the necessary treatment for the involved tooth after the swelling and pain come down.
Regards.
