How to relieve toothache caused by fatigue
When fatigue triggers toothache, it may indicate the presence of inflammation or excessive internal heat (fire) in the body. Under a doctor's guidance, medications such as metronidazole tablets, tinidazole tablets, or Niuhuang Jiedu Pills can be used to alleviate tooth pain symptoms.
1. Metronidazole Tablets
Metronidazole tablets are effective for treating toothaches caused by infections or excessive internal heat. They also have certain therapeutic effects on inflammatory conditions such as periapical periodontitis and pulpitis. However, metronidazole is not a painkiller but an anti-inflammatory medication that primarily works by inhibiting anaerobic bacterial infections. It does not provide analgesic effects. Therefore, it can be taken together with ibuprofen sustained-release tablets to simultaneously relieve pain and treat the underlying inflammation.
2. Tinidazole Tablets
Tinidazole is a medication used to treat anaerobic bacterial infections and is commonly prescribed for acute pericoronitis of wisdom teeth and acute periodontal abscesses caused primarily by anaerobic bacteria. It helps alleviate tooth pain as an adjunctive treatment and should be used under medical supervision.
3. Niuhuang Jiedu Pills
The main ingredients of Niuhuang Jiedu Pills are rhubarb and bezoar. These pills are commonly used to treat symptoms such as red and swollen eyes, sore throat, and throat pain. Because they possess heat-clearing and detoxifying properties, they are effective in relieving toothaches caused by excessive internal heat.
Besides the above options, erythromycin capsules may also be used under a doctor’s guidance to help alleviate tooth pain symptoms.
