Call ur surgeon: Call the oral surgeon that you have scheduled the extractions with. They should be able to prescribe the meds necessary to make you comfortable, but it would be even better if you can be seen earlier than in a few weeks. Feel better soon...

Call your dentist: for future instructions. If the dentist can't be reached and it is a true emergency, go to the nearest emergency room or take Tylenol/Advil for pain control.
