It's around 3 am and I've only managed to sleep a couple lousy hours. My toothache is so severe that even my cheek hurts. I took acetaminophen, put a cold dish towel covered bag of frozen peas to my cheek, put generic Ambesol on the most painful areas. Nothing helps. It's getting even worse. There is no sign of infection, but I wish taking an antibiotic was an easy fix. I tried to wear a mouth guard, but it is excruciatingly painful.
