😉 Greetings to regular readers and guests! In the article “Toothache: how to relieve pain on your own”, there are simple tips on how to relieve a toothache at home.
I want to warn you that the above methods of pain relief are not a cure. They are designed for the case when a doctor is not available, but you cannot use them all the time. They do not rule out going to the dentist as soon as possible.
If a tooth hurts on a hike, in the country, or just in the evening, when it is no longer possible to make an appointment, you can use any of these methods. There is no need to use all the methods at once, you need to choose one.
How to relieve a toothache with folk remedies
- hand massage. You need to find a point in the palm of your hand. Where the bones of the index and thumb diverge on the hand that will be on the opposite side of the unhealthy tooth. Intense circular movements will relieve pain for a short time (photo);
- A bite of lard can help! Place it between the gum and the aching tooth. In 10 minutes. the pain will subside;
- with a frequency of 1-1,5 hours, apply a cotton swab soaked in fir oil to the sore spot. Keep for 10-15 minutes;
- take onion, garlic and salt in equal proportions. Chop a clove of garlic and a leaf of onion, add salt. You will get a specific smelling mixture. Apply it to a sore tooth, holding it with a piece of gauze or a cotton pad;
- upper lip massage. It will help all teeth except the upper two front teeth. It is in this place, in the hollow above the upper lip, that the point of tranquility is located. This is an acupressure, which is done with intense prolonged pressure for several minutes;
- You can put ice directly on your cheek, frozen in a plastic bottle wrapped in a towel. This method should be treated with caution. If it is known that a nerve can become inflamed, it is better not to freeze it;
- rinsing also has a soothing effect. To do this, you need to prepare a solution: a glass of water, a teaspoon of salt, 5 drops of iodine;
- lotions reduce the pain threshold. As a pain reliever, you can use a tincture of valerian, hawthorn or camphor alcohol. You need a cotton swab, soak it with any of these medicines and apply to the sore spot.
- rinsing the mouth with hydrogen peroxide. Solution: dilute 3% peroxide with water in a 1: 1 ratio;
- mint infusion can be a real salvation for severe toothache. Boil the peppermint and rinse your mouth with the resulting, but not hot, solution. This, of course, will not remove the problem, but it will help alleviate the suffering.
Despite the removal of the painful syndrome, the tooth continues to deteriorate. Even if the pain is completely gone, going to the dentist is a must! By the way, many say anesthesiaаlivanie! Properly – securedоlingering from the word pain (from the article “We Speak Correctly”).
