Hi,
I have come back from an emergency dentist appointment with a prescription of erythromycin for an abcess under a molar and got an appointment with my dentist on Thursday for possible root canal. I am in absolute agony and finding it hard to function let alone parent my two young DDs. Because I’m breastfeeding and exclusively I can only take over the counter pain relief and this is the only antibiotic I can take because I’m allergic to penicillin and it’s safe for breastfeeding. I’m really struggling.. I’ve had 2 in medicated labours and in some ways this pain s worse! My Face is swollen and pain radiates in my ear and jaw. Anyone had success with this antibiotic for an abcess before? Any other recommendations?
I am Not sure how I would cope with root canal but this is hard to bear.. x
