The worst thing I am facing in this Lockdown

Oh, everyone, I know the time is terrible for all now. But mine got a little bit more interesting. I couldn't sleep for two days. Do you know why? It's because I am having a terrible toothache. I have a broken tooth and it was like that for a long time with no pain. But guess what? After all this time, the pain started happening last week. Now it is totally unbearable. The general physician suggested pain killers are not even working for me. It's getting worse every single day. I called a lot of dentists but none of them are available. So guess what? I have to go with it as long as this lockdown goes on. Toothache is that kind of ache only the one who has it or had it before, they can understand how painful and irritating it is. My one side of the mouth is big you know. Though another dentist suggested some medicine today and I got it now, I hope it works. I am even writing this with terrible pain. it's like someone hammering in my teeth and it's affecting my brain. What a terrible feeling eh.

yes I guess there is infection. I used some pain relievers but it just not going away. Also using pain relievers not good for health. Though doc suggested me again some pain relievers. I really want to remove the tooth now. I just want to remove it.

Yes indeed the dental pains are unbearable. Sorry for that. Hold some cloves between the teeth and see if it helps. It normally helps when pain is not much.

I used clove oil, it did help for some moments and then the pain started knocking my head again.

Apply cold compress to the affected area like ice covered with towel, or apply hot compress to the affected area which is which to reduce the pain.

I can feel you here. Tooth pain is the worst pain to bear. I hope the medicine given by the dentist provide you some relief.

I gargled a herbal treatment - the bark of cotton fruit and vinegar was boiled with one other ingredient I'm not sure about and I gargled it. Thankfully and hopefully it will not be painful again.

Try not opening your mouth as frequently as possible. Use sign language, at least you haven't lost your will to write
