You don’t have to take antibiotics unless there’s severe infection.
If there’s pain take Tab Combiflam or Tab ketrol dt 3 times for three days .
If pain stops discontinue the tablet .
There’s a difference between sensitivity and pain, first make sure what it is because treatment differs for either of the conditions.
Next Steps
If pain killer alone doesn’t give you relief ,then you can take
Tab Novamox Lb 500mg 1-1-1 *3 days
Along with your painkiller (ketrol dt/ Combiflam)
Health Tips
Brush your teeth twice daily
