Oh my God. Please someone shoot me now and put me out of my misery. I had a root canal treatment yesterday (the 5th on this tooth). It took 3 hours and the dentist warned me I might I have pain/an infection as he had had to go so deep to the jaw as the roots were 'difficult'.
I went to bed at 11pm with a bit of discomfort. I woke up at 2am with a face swollen like a grapefruit, pain from my ear all the way into my shoulder and vomiting. I've taken paracetamol and ibuprofen together but it hasn't even taken the edge off the pain. I've been sat up all night with ice packs to my face, even though it's agony to even touch it.
Mr K has headed out to get me antibiotics and strong painkillers. I'm so tired I could cry. I can't even tilt my head without it being agony and I can't open my mouth to speak. This isn't normal is it? The dentist doesn't open for another hour yet.
