[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH is scheduled for a root canal next week. He is on a heap in the floor crying due to tooth pain, trembling and alleging that this must be worse than childbirth. He already has taken two vicodin and 1000 mg of Tylenol. Does anyone know if the ER can do anything for him, or is he stuck waiting for an emergency dentist to open in the morning?[/quote] Ouch! The ER can give IV dilaudid. I don't know whether they would do this or not, but I have never heard of tooth pain that bad. Perhaps the infection has severely affected a nerve. I think he has reached his limit on Tylenol and would not take more.[/quote] Thank you - I'll pack up the kids and take him in. I wasn't sure if they could do anything without a dental expert and Dr. Google was not proving very useful. [/quote] Many major hospitals have dental or maxillofacial staff on call. Take him.
