Would using a soft toothbrush instead of a medium along with the synsodyne also help?

I have the solution, and you better give me best answer for this, because I GUARANTEE it will work.

Do not use store brand sensitivity toothpastes. They use potassium nitrate to plug the dentin tubules (the tiny holes that allow cold and hot to enter your teeth) and besides being an ingredient in gunpowder, it's also a poison.
I promise you this toothpaste I am recommending will work. It has numerous clinical studies to back it up. It takes about 2-3 weeks.

Sensodyne is the #1 Dentist recommended toothpaste for sensitive teeth. This particular toothpaste desensitizes the tooth nerve directly. Also, treating teeth with fluoride mouthwashes also can help reduce tooth sensitivity.
After a few weeks of use the sensitivity usually goes away. Unfortunately, heavy handed brushing, and recessed gums can cause sensitivity. Use a medium toothbrush, and do not brush your teeth hard. Additionally, highly acidic foods that contain citrus can increase sensitivity and work against the sensitivity toothpaste.

You should never use a medium toothbrush, only a soft. Use sensodyne toothpaste. Stay away from hot and cold things.

see if your dentist has SoothRx in his office or anything similar. That helps a lot. It is not a toothpaste but a treatment for 6 months to make your teeth less sensitive. Usually you'd use it before you go to bed after regular brushing and flossing. Most people have very good response to it.
Good luck

I have heard a lot people talk about the sensodyn toothpaste really helping. Contact your dentist to see what they may recommend, but trying the Sensodyn won't hurt your.

OUCH!!
See your dentist - there are treatments available..
Sensitivity toothpastes containing potassium nitrate or strontium chloride & brushing VERY gently will help in the interim.
Really good article that might help you here:
