Hi..
Can understand your concern...

After reading your query i would like to advise you that if you have a decayed tooth which is indicated for root canal treatment you should look forward for root canal treatment as this can cure your pain as well as save your tooth..

In case of decayed tooth causing severe pain a course of antibiotic like amoxicillin or augmentin and painkiller like Diclomol or Anaida and in severe pain Ketorol DT can be relieving WHICH CAN BE TAKEN ONLY AFTER A DENTIST ADVISE YOU AFTER CLINICAL EXAMINATION AND IF YOU ARE NOT ALLERGIC TO THE MEDICINES..

But there may be relapse in pain episodes and there is chance where the pain does not go away if there is pus formation below the tips of roots of infected tooth and a dentist creates a way for pus to come out and that is through root canal treatment..

You should never ever think of pulling a tooth out by yourself as without anesthesia and proper dental knowledge your attempt can be extremely painful and damaging..

On the other hand if by rootcanal a tooth can be saved attempts should be made to save the tooth..
You should consult your dentist and get root canal done..

Hope your query is solved..

Thanks and regards..
