Toothache medicine for my son
Ny son is having toothache which medicine should i give him for relief from toothache..He is 8 yrs old

A medicine to control tooth ache will only work temporarily and not solve the problem long term. The tooth will continue to keep getting worse if it's not treated soon. The affected tooth requires immediate treatment. Too much medicine given for a long time is also not healthy for your child's organs.
Next Steps
consult a pediatric dentist as soon as possible
Health Tips
do not give unnecessary medicines without prescription from a doctor or dentist.
