Hello,
It sounds like your symptoms have been triggered or worsened due to trauma from sharp food and underlying dental issues, possibly a cracked tooth or pulpitis. Here's what you can do while traveling:
𩺠Immediate Relief Steps:
Tab Ketorol-DT 10 mg
â Dissolve 1 tablet in water after meals
â Can be repeated after 8 hours if needed (Max 2 per day, only for 2â3 days)
Tab Pantop 40 mg
â Take once daily, empty stomach in the morning to manage acidity
Avoid very cold, hot, sweet, or hard food
Do warm salt water rinses 3â4 times a day
Use a soft toothbrush and brush gently around the affected area
Next Steps
Once you're back from travel, get a clinical evaluation and an X-ray (RVG/IOPA) done. Pain may be due to: Cracked tooth Deep cavity reaching pulp Previous RCT failure Food impaction near gum line
Health Tips
If the pain becomes persistent, causes swelling, or affects sleep continuously despite medication, seek a local dental consultation immediately, even while traveling.
