DH has got a nasty infection in a large molar. Been prescribed metronidazole this morning. He has taken all of the antibiotics for today. He now has two immediate problems.....
- Since the early hours he has taken 3 doses of ibuprofen ( so no more as maximum it says on packet) and 5 doses of paracetamol ( so def no more as that’s one more than he should have). Is there anything else he can take / do to relieve pain until early hours when he can take more meds?
- He says the pain is worse than this morning - dm says antibiotics can make pain worse ( not sure if that’s and old wives tale). He is almost crying in pain and save for dc birth and funerals of dgp he never cries!
Any advice would e great!
