i am seven months pregnant and i m having a terrible toothache!like three years ago i went to the dentist and he took the tooth out,but the problem is the tooth never healed,it used to bleed sometimes but it never hurt.i went to the dentist and he said that the problem is that the dentist that took the tooth out left a nerve inside thats why it never healed and that i should leave it like that because it will come out by itself.now i m having a terrible toothache and i think its a little bit swollen to.can anyone tell me what to do,is there anything i can put on my tooth to make the pain go away?

I would call your dr first before taking anything, including any homepathic stuff. I have read that green tea shoudln't be drank while your pregnant because one of the active ingredients, EGCG, binds to folic acid, thereby increasing the risk of certain folate related birth defects. You know how that goes though, some people think certain things are okay to do and others think it isnt'. Try gargling with some salt water, that's what I did when my gums are swollen. Hope you feel better.

take olive leaf extract daily
drink green tea daily
aloe vera juice with cranberry juice helps pain disappear
see a homeopath
lime juice on a cotton wool ball in the tooth
7 cayenne pepper capsules or eat some red chilli

Try oregel till you get to the dentist and have the problem fixed. Or call your doc to see what type of pain relievers you can take for the time being.
