I had a root canal on tooth 30 and I'm waking up in pain and can't fall back asleep My face feels like its on fire from my jaw to my ear. Idk how much more I can stand. The antibiotic is making me vomit and I can't take a lot of Vicodin or ibprophin it's bad for your stomach so idk what to do. I'm on a family vacation and I'm in a lot of pain.

Hi Jennifer,

I'm afraid that no one here would be able to help you in a timely manner and it's already almost a full day later since you posted.

I hope the pain has eased but if it hasn't, please get yourself some medical care.

Let us know how you're doing.
