Spent last weekend with awful toothache, rang dentist first thing on Monday and saw dentist. He's given me metronidazole for an abscess under a molar. I'm taking ibuprofen, and paracetamol as often as I'm allowed. I've had 72 hours on antibiotics. It still hurts and I'm losing the will to live.
Do I need to see dentist again? Do I just need to keep going on these antibiotics? I can hardly think straight with this pain

At what point do I decide antibiotics aren't working?
