[|Human|] My daughter had a root canal on her front tooth 2 days ago. She is still very swollen and sore. the tooth next to this one has already had a root canal but needs to be redone. There was infection around both teeth but no antibiotics were prescribed. I have a z pack that was prescribed for my other daughter that she didnt need it was a "just in case" script. Will this z pack help this issue or is this swelling and pain normal? The first root canal on the tooth that needs to be redone didnt give her this much trouble.
[|AI|]  Root canal treatment generally relieves the swelling and pain and the completion of the root canal is done only after the symptoms like swelling and pain is gone. If your daughter is still having the problem you visit to the dentist and ask him or her to take an x-ray to see weather the infection has subsided or not. If the adjacent tooth is also having infection he should have restarted the root canal treatment on the same day or prescribed and antibiotic. You do not use this z pack because if the infection is still inside the tooth it will not get relieved. It is better to contact your dentist first and then use any medication.
