Its been 4 days i had a tongue ulceration and now im having a very small toothache. what can i do? i don't want to go to the dentist yet. thanks.

That's a shame. : What you must do and what you should do is a matter of choice. Since you choose not to seek assistance of a professional who may provide it, you must choose to suffer if the condition that has caused your symptoms is allowed to fester untended. Perhaps you should make a wiser choice? Good luck!

Well...: You need to not procrastinate your visit. But, in the meantime, try warm salt water rinses and keep the wound clean. As for the toothache, it depends on the cause. Over the counter pain medications can be used but shouldn't be for more than a week.

Question: If you had an ulcer on the outside of your face and pain in the underlying bone would you put off seeking treatment? Anything you could do yourself will not "cure" your problem, especially the sore and probably abscessed tooth. The longer you wait, the more serious the infection, the more difficult and expensive the possible solutions. Please call dentist now.. Don't wait.
