So long story short, I'm on the waiting list to have a tooth out at the hospital because it's decayed thanks to a botch job at a previous dentist and my immunity to the numbing agent when I've had fillings in the past. However, this tooth is incredibly painful and I've got a wisdom tooth coming through on the same side which is pushing on the nerve of the already painful tooth.
I'm taking pain killers regularly but these are now starting to not work. I'm losing sleep as I get woken up in the night in so much pain and the pain killers aren't working when I take them.
Anyone have any advice that I can do to soothe the pain at night as I am really starting to feel the lack of sleep in the day and I'm knackered when I normally cope well with early mornings.
Thanks for the advice in advance.
