Tooth # 4 RT. Maxillary 2nd Bicuspid (I looked it up on chart) the whole tooth shattered apart below the gum line. I m taking Clindamycin HCL 150mg 2 caps 3 times a day. I have pain that will shoot up into my Rt. ear and temple. Been on abt about 4 days. However, now I m now seeing a dark skin discoloration under and UP into the inner corner of my Rt. eye now. (like a minor black eye) Can infections cause skin discolorations without swelling? I m 5 5 168lbs and 55 years old.
Hellloas per your description it seems that your tooth got fractured and due to that pulp is exposed now an exposed pulp leads to pain infection and swelling in the area of root Titans what seems to be the case with you what I would suggest that you visit your nearby dentist and get a radiograph done and get the tooth extracted in the meanwhile you can do the following to reduce pain and swelling1.levofloxacin 500 mg twice daily for 5 days2. Any painkiller twice daily for 5 days3.omnacortil 10 mg twice daily for 3 days4.lukewarm saline rinses for 4-6 times daily hope that helps
