Its better to take an antibiotic than just take ketorol everyday in case its not helping relieve pain after a day or two. Not a good idea to take pain killer for long

It's not clear for how many days u have been taking Ketorol DT. It's a safe drug u can take it for 3 - 4 days. Ketorol DT is a pain killer. Pain relief is seen with in 5 to 10 min but effect does not last. I would recommend a change in the pain killer to ZERODOL SP
Is the pain continuous or increase more at night ?
Is there any visible swelling?
Please clarify
Next Steps
adviced to take
Tab ZERODOL SP 1-0-1 for 4 days
Start with
Amox 500 mg 1-1-1 for 5 days in case there is swelling with pain
also advised warm salt water gargle every 4 hrs
