[|Human|] I have a toothache and gum / cheek soreness .  Went to dentist 2 weeks ago and he said I need root canal.  But I have been so sick with flu virus as well, I havent been up to the procedure and keep putting it off.  I have been on antibiotics the whole time but just not getting better.  Feel miserable.  Should I have the root canal while I feel so sick, or keep waiting till I feel better?
[|AI|]  Hello:)Thank you for trusting Chat Doctor. I suggest you to explain this to your dentist as well. Root canal treatment can be done in multiple sittings(two or three) depending on infection, pus etc. I suggest you to take the first sitting done. This will eliminate pain, so you can feel better. This first sitting will take as long as 20-30 minutes. You can take the second sitting after a week or 10 days,meanwhile you can get well from flu as well. Too much of antibiotics is not recommended. Regards.
