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.
Yes hello.. I am 37 3 days pregnant. For about two weeks now I ve been having tooth and ear pain. A few days ago is when it s began to be unbearable at night and I am awakened out of my sleep. I m unsure if I should go to the emergency room due to me possibly having an ear infection
If the pain is unbearable, then yes, you should be seen.
Ear infections require antibiotic therapy either orally or topical drops to the ears. It would depend on the examination findings and availability.
If you are not able to go to the emergency room then your general doctor can treat you as well In addition to the antibiotics, you can use oral anti inflammatory pain killers to treat the pain eg ibuprofen, naproxen, cataflam
I hope this helps
