[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 277904, member: 6705"] Andy mentioned Orudis KT. This is the [B][I]only thing that worked for me[/I][/B]. They gave me narcotics for the pain when I had multiple abscesses and they didn't touch it. At all. But one little green 12-mg tablet of ketoprofen and BLAM - pain gone. I also have seen it under another brand name - I think it's Actron, but I could be wrong - I have had [I]extensive[/I] dental work. I think between my parents and I we have paid for several trips to Scotland, a remodel of the dentist's office and a couple of cars... Anyway, if you can find OTC ketoprofen of any kind, it is worth its weight in Hope Diamonds. Extra strength Orajel was something I used a lot of for a long time. The night time stuff tastes terrible and has a nasty texture but the daytime stuff is good. Warning - you get a numb throat if you swallow any! Cloves - also good. Take a scant handful and steep in regular tea (boiling!). Tastes good, too, which is a nice bonus. Last but not least, believe it or not, [I]butterscotch pudding[/I] seems to help. And I'm not a big fan of it. Hmm. [/QUOTE]
