instruction: hi doctor I am having pain in my lower tooth whenever I go to sleep due to lockdown I am unable to consult the dentist can you please tell me any tablet that I can use in the meantime
output: hello sorry for the pain you are bearing because of the prevailing situation as you have already mentioned there is a cavity and when it reaches up to the pulp there develops an irreversible stage which generally is more painful during night time as we sleep I think your tooth has reached the stage of irreversible pulpits and a root canal treatment is now must in order to save the remaining tooth so go for it as soon as the situation in your area gets better for now take amoxicillin clavulanate 500 my thrice daily for five days paracetamol 500 my to thrice daily sos do not take paracetamol when there is no pain but do complete the amoxicillin course additionally you can take any one for gastritis if you have a tendency to develop gastritis with antibiotics you can take pan pantoprazole or omen omeprazole take them on empty stomach do salt water rinse regularly you can apply clove oil at the site it is a good anti inflammatory maintain good oral hygiene regularly but for sure get it treated avoid eating from the affected side until it gets treated or even if you eat make sure nothing gets lodged in that tooth do mouth rinses with plain water regularly so that there is no food stuck drink plenty of water I hope this helps
