can take until I can get to the Dentist.. I've tried gargling with TCP [YUCK!].. taken taking Nurofen tablets...[they only work temporarily]. shall I just attach my tooth to a piece of string tie it to a door and pull it out myself. LOL

All you really can do is aim at symptom reduction with an all-purpose cold and FLU medication like DayQuil and NyQuil., get plenty of rest and eat healthy foods. Keep yourself hydrated. Drink hot liquids like tea or chicken soup to reduce the inflammation in your chest and upper respiratory symptoms. Get a nasal decongestant to keep yourself breathing comfortably. There is the old joke that if you medicate and treat yourself you can get rid of a flu-like cold in seven days but if you go to a doctor and get prescription medications, your cold will be gone in a week! You take it easy and don't believe all the myths. None of them really work because this kind of ailment can disappear in 3 days or linger for 8 - 10 and those who are lucky give the credit to whatever mendicants they use. But it like the two people who got BMW's last week. One of them prayed for it and the car company gave him a big loan so he gives the credit to God. The other one worked for it and paid cash so he gives the credit to himself. Both of them could have gotten reliable transportation for a third the price!

For your toothache I would try clove oil, works really well. Other option is to dab some whisky onto a cotton wool ball and put that on the tooth that is sore

Rub clove oil on your tooth and gums around it and if you have a cavity in the tooth get the clove oil inside the cavity. Do this over and over. It's the only thing I know that for sure works. Clove oil kills the nerve which kills the pain. It tastes terrible, and will sting at first worse than the toothache, but will subside and feel better. Promise!
You can also take 4 advil and 2 tylenol together...that's what my dentist told me to take when I ran out of pain pills for a toothache.
Go buy some clove oil!

Gargle warm salt water for your throat or drink warm honey and lemonade and get some ambesol for your toothache.

Toothaches are painful but can be prevented
by take suitable precautions. Avoid eating
food which will result in the formation of acid
in the mouth, brush teeth regularly with a fluoride
toothpaste. I found the information at

you need medical attention. go to the dentist and get that tooth out meanwhile you probaly have an infection that is making your throat sore, so request for an antibiotic.

#1- you need to go the hospital if the pain is that bad and make an emergency appt with a dentist.
#2-Sounds like a really bad infection in your tooth that may need a root canal or extraction (which i had and i know the pain your having)
hope you feel better fast!
