My mom has a SEVERE toothache, her mouth is a little swollen, and she cant get anywhere because its raining really hard and we are expecting a hurricane. In the afternoon, a dentist told her he thought it was infected. Please give remedies or advice. Please!
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The toothache could be because of the tooth infection. You need to consult an oral physician and get a radiograph done to confirm the diagnosis, after that the tooth can be treated with either root canal treatment or extraction. Meanwhile you can take a course of antibiotics like penicillin 500\u00a0mg TID and analgesics like diclofenac 50\u00a0mg BID (if you are not allergic and sensitive to these Chat Doctor.  Do saline gargling. Consult a dental surgeon or endodontist as early as possible. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
