[|Human|] hello. i think my wisdom teeth are acting up. i have an important exam to take on saturday, and do not have time between now and then to go to the dentist. is there anything i can take in the meantime to alleviate the pain, and make sure i dont get distracted by it between now and saturday--and especially saturday? thanks
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The pain can be because of the erupting wisdom tooth causing inflammation of the overlying gums called peritonitis. Understanding your situation since you have exam, If I am your treating doctor, I would suggest you to take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500 mg and metronidazole 400 mg TID for 5 days (if you are not allergic). Along with this you can take an analgesics like diclofenac 50 mg bid. Do saline gargling. Be cool, do not get stressed up. Concentrate on your exam. But the medicine are for short period of time, once you finish your exams you can consult a dental surgeon and get the tooth removed. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
