Had my 4 wisdom teeth extracted 4 days ago. Everything went well until recently. I'm now in severe pain that ibuprofen and acetamenophin aren't covering. They don't last long enough.(Dry socket, I suppose).
I'm going to the dental urgent care at a major dental school ASAP, and I know they will ask what I **can** take.
I had morphine before, but I doubt if they will want to use it.
Anything else I can take?
PS -I've heard some people do well with clove oil applied directly to the tooth socket. Has that helped anyone?
If I don't get back to this post -- thanks in advance!
