Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a throbbing toothache. It s the top second to last molar tooth on the left side that has or had a filling in it. I m feverish and have been vomiting the last two days. I want to yank it out myself. I don t have a dentist or a dentist near that except my insurance. What can I do?
i can understand how you are suffering from this bad tooth ache. but never try to remove the teeth your self , because it can be very harmful due to risk of bleeding and infection. first you can take some pain killers and antibiotics to settle the pain and infection. you can take paracetamol, brufen , amoxcillin and flagyl. you can take a prescription from your family doctor to take these drugs . after pain and fever setttling , meet a dentist . he will decide to extract or fill the tooth .
