steph, go to the ER. ER drs are trained to deal with this, and they can also refer you to someone.

it sounds like you might have gotten a dry socket...extremely painful!

go to the ER. If you have no funds, most hosps. now have indigency clauses...something will work out.

good luck and let us know!

Call the doctor that said you need to have that tooth out. If you can't pay, then fill out the forms (or have your mom, whomever is responsible) and forget it. Go get help, these things only get worse over time (what about the emergency aspect?) Infections, throat swelling, etc. Feel better...please.

You need to get that tooth pulled and get that bacteria out of there, or it's going to get into your blood stream and cost a lot more money to get you better.

Unless your doctor OK's more, you can take up to 3 Aleve in 24 hours, 2 with the first dose and another 12 hours later. You should be fine.

What about welfare? I know a lot of people don't want to be on it, but there is medical assistance. I don't know if they cover teeth, but they do cover many things.

Hang in there...you'll find something.
