A member asked:
Tooth looked like needed root canal.seem to b improving to point felt healed. had painful chinese reflexology session andin 3hrs tooth now hurts.why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Reflexology may: have distracted you from the tooth pain temporarily. I have great respect for comp. and alt. treatments but if a dentist and a second opinion suggest root canal or removal please take that advice seriously. Peace and good health.
