I would like to nominate pathogens and medical science………. and no, before you ask, this is not Covid-related.
For the last 4 days I’ve had an excrutiating abscess which is now the size of a small grape under my 2nd lower molar accompanied by inflamation of the lymph node and salivary gland as well as shooting pain in the temple and ear. I’ve been giving genuine consideration to rendering my self unconscious with my housemate’s wok for pain relief.
I haven’t slept in 3 nights and the antibiotics are slow-acting but I thought that pain relief could aid me in sleeping but I was wrong…….. because I forgot that some high-IQ, mega-brained medical scientists thought it prudent to put aspirin and paracetamol in the same pills as caffeine.

Tooth abcess2 this admin.
My condolences TITS, abcesses are indeed right lousy bastards.
I had one and my face swelled up like Popeye!
All I wanted to do was sleep,
Because it was giving me blood poisoning.
Antibiotics, swill your mouth regularly with salt water,
Painkillers, but mainly that tooths got to be pulled.
Swilling whisky also helped.
The smell thats released when the tooth comes out is like Jess Philips knickers on a summer day, truly horrible.
Hope you get it sorted.👍
(So you really do scope out people’s washing lines/baskets loaded with suspect undercrackers then? Disgraceful! – DA)

Despicable behaviour – washing lines and baskets should only ever be robbed when tha’s a ‘ot date and needs to look all flash!
I had my first tooth out a couple of years ago, never really had trouble with them which I thank my late Mother for – no sweet stuff bought or encouraged.
I noted, somewhat to my chagrin, that there was no fiscal settlement from this “tooth fairy” – that lovely Indian dentist probably keeps it next to her heart to remind her of me! 😀👍

Nasty.
I assume the bleks are behind it all.
To your recovery 🍺

My condolences, TITS. As Mis has said, swill with saltwater – min twice a day. This will help draw the infection away.
I have a back tooth that was root canaled and temporarily filled, awaiting a crown. The bastard has since splintered and is now giving me grief. Another dentist appointment awaits. Never mind.

Ask about a bridge?
Sounds like the fucker has to come out.
My old dentist was up in court quite some years ago for administering a type of drowsiness inducing valium to young ladies and then paying them a visit. Defended successfully by George Carmen of Len Fairclough fame. Can’t be googled as a new law allowed him to remove details from the net.
In fits of depravity, filled the wrong cavity!

My sympathies TITS, tooth pain is a debilitating cunt that fucks every waking moment. In my experience over the counter ibuprofen a hot water bottle and whisky is quite effective.

Take 3 soluble Co-Codamol (paracetamol & codeine) every six hours. Best over-the-counter pain relief there is, contains zero caffeine.

Had those when I crashed my motorbike after sliding on black ice and broke my shoulder in January.A brilliant medication although it tends to wear off every 3 hours or so.

I can offer some advice here. A few years ago I had a fantastic holistic dentist (obviously ‘fantastic dentist’ tells you this was not in the UK). He introduced me to a substance called propolis. This is a bee product, they make it using tree resin and a combination of other plant-based substances to produce a natural antibiotic. The thing is, pharmaceutical antibiotics are a fixed chemical compound, so pathogens can easily evolve around them. However, with propolis every hive, every year produces a slightly different compound making it impossible for pathogens to evolve around it. It is an ever moving target. That is why it has been around for hundreds of millions of years, and the bugs ain’t beat it yet.
It can be taken internally (mixed with warm water), but is also effective applied topically, either on cuts or particularly on gums. Just put some on the end of your finger and gently rub it on the abscess or inflammation every couple of hours. I swear by it.
Obviously, as a natural product, it cannot be patented so the pharmaceutical sales organisation, also known as the medical industry, tries to ignore it. Hence the place to buy it is in health food stores and the like, I doubt you would find it in a pharmacy.
Disclaimer: You can trust me, I’m not a doctor.

Apparently Holland and Barrett sell it, £16.
Useful for other ailments.
Yanks have nice teeth,
They go the dentist all the time,
They take the piss out of our teeth, because we have teeth like Johnny Rotten.
But im happy with my healthy green smile.
It wouldn’t suit me a row of pearly white choppers,
Like fuckin Shergar.

Toothache is a cunt have had terrible wisdom teeth for years but as the pain fluctuates they wont remove them.Probably waiting until it is constant abesses infections and agony.Bastards.

It’s worth noting that if you’re on a course of antibiotics, some painkillers won’t make any difference.
Booze can make it worse if it clashes.

Nightmare, i had an absess like that and i can honestly tell you, if i was in an elevator with Katey Price, a gun with 2 bullets in it, i would have shot myself twice such was the level of pain.
As usual couldnt get in to the fucking dentist so ended up going to the hospital dentist, to have it sorted out by iraki dentist, who for good measure she told me they were busy dur to people not wanting to pay for dental care and opting for the free NHS dental service.
After i had my bad tooth removed said Iraki dentist was reminded, its not fucking free at all, working types like myself have been paying a big chunk of our wages all our lives towards the NHS, also its my N/A contribution that pays towards things like Iraki,s turning up in the UK and training as dentists, further more its only free for the benefit scroungers of which more than a few were in the waiting room and clogging up my dentist of choice, forcing me to come to the fucking hospital in the first place and to add insult to injury im paying for these cunts as well to have dental/ NHS care.
So now im just going strait to the hospital i pay for first sign of any trouble, im fucking paying for it already so fuck it…..

You have my sympathy. Sounds excruciating. If you were a dark-key you could blame structural racism. Alas, there is no such convenient scapegoat for whiteys.
Medicine can indeed be a cunt.

I told ya, fucking brush well after tonguing women’s bumholes.

B&WC@ – I tried but the gal was complaining that the toothbrush was “scratchy” on her balloon knot!
Girls eh? 😀👍

+1 for the salt water : 2 teaspoons in a whiskey tumbler of warm water, tilt your bonce so it bathes the abcess, after a minute it’ll start to sting, good, leave it there for another minute then gob it out. Repeat every 30mins – hourly.
2
1 teaspoon of warm water.
50mg fentanyl.
A pinch of novichok.
You won’t feel any more pain from the abscess.

Had an abscess a few years ago. Absolute agony because of the pressure on the nerve. The dentist prescribed antibiotics & also on my request, lanced the abscess. Instant pain relief, and cleared up once drained of the poison. Saved my tooth too.
