I'm having severe tooth pain and hoping it will take me out. I might just ignore it so it will kill me.

Call the dentist.

If you can't afford it please call your nearest dental school.

Also there is an ointment which works temporarily, available OTC at any drugstore: campho something.

As a last resort some vodka or any hard liquor will work.

I'm sorry, this sucks, and although I vehemently disagree with your politics, no one deserves tooth pain. Okay, Trump does.

Hang in there.

This crap works for temporary relief.
Numbs the shit out of pain.

I should apply to my whole body and brain!

Good luck, keep us posted.

If this is an infection you need to keep gargling with warm/tepid salt water and listerine. Also hydrogen peroxide.

Don't let this infection or whatever is going on kill you. If you want to go out with a bang this isn't the way.

Is this available at CVS? Or Walgreens?

Not all of us live in the valley of the Scotsman and have access to Scottish magic bark.

:p

don't ignore this.

Dentistry schools can help if you can't afford a local dentist.

So, OP your prescription is:

@Johnnythefox oil.

Campho

Hydrogen peroxide

Call dentist.

Let us know if you follow this and how you are doing. Warm or ice cold compresses can also provide relief temporarily.

Love? Maybe offer her some real help.
I'm sorry I didn't spend the time to belittle your suggestions. The method aspect of self neglect in this scenario sounds terrible. I'm sorry that you're feeling mean spirited.

Belittle my suggestions? They are very real attempts to help, Stella. Concrete suggestions, and very helpful ones I might add.

Yes, because alcohol is a go to, isn't it?
I'm sorry that my post doesn't fit your standard. Perhaps some orajel would be more suitable. and six people telling her to visit a dentist.

But anelakapu's contribution was fine.

Alcohol has been used for centuries to numb pain, and not by imbibing it necessarily. You can take some vodka and put it on a wound and it will kill bacteria and numb pain.

Encouraging someone to visit a medical PROFESSIONAL isn't lame advice: many have fear of them, or can't afford it.

I have tooth issues myself Final, the logical step is to get it taken care of. I'm with Stella that it isn't the best way to go, the pain alone is not going to go away soon. I've suggested to previous posters about their teeth and explained that you can use a myriad of solutions hydrogen peroxide, and other things to fight infections but the main issue is infections are deep in the nerves of the tooth and can spread to your jaw bone, lymphatic system, and bloodstream, even your brain can become infected and abscessed and from a tooth left untreated though it's rare.
Anyway all I'm trying to say is if I even had any kind of money, for gas, for anything I'd get mine pulled asap to avoid further complications that aren't life threatening.

I didn't say it was lame advice. I didn't suggest it because there was no need to repeat it ten times over again. Common sense also suggests this is a necessity.

I didn't say that they weren't.

Lady.

You criticized my suggestion about alcohol, that's really clear here. Sometimes there is a need to repeat shit ten times over again.

But suggesting a dentist on top of it would've been helpful.

Thanks for including vast knowledge of the consequences.

Oh, nevermind. That was @Aesthler.

An antibiotic might be necessary. Or was that already suggested?
