so I'm having all my wisdom teeth out on friday, and two of them are impacted which means fairly long surgery, and a lot of pain. I really really hate taking chemical painkillers like aspirin, ibuprofen, etc., and will give anything to stay away from them. does anyone know of anything natural or herbal I can take to keep the pain away?
cloves are perfect, ambusil or whatever they give ya for a topicalnumbing agent is really just clove oil with crap added just suck on a couple cloves & it'll numb the area others i can think of would be white willow bark, which is basicaly what asperin originaly came from, ummi dinno has anyone tried homeopathic arnica for this type thing? oh if u dont wanna suck on the cloves since they can get intothe sore spot & altho numbing it also iritate the area, u can get it as an esential oil, but be very careful because theyre very strong..& 1 or 2 drops can numb 1/2 your face
dope is quasi natural ...the power of the flower...opiat analgesic.... you may or may not experience significant discomfort after the local lidocane wears off .....the dentist will probly only give you hydros .....take em if ya need em .....
I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth out, they gave me percoset demi's which are the weakest ones, they didnt do anything for me so I didnt end up taking anything after the first 12 hours. I smoked some reefer after 24 hours but that hurt like hell. Make sure you get the medicine just in case the pain is pretty terrible. If i had to do it all over again, I would make weed brownies.
ice might hold off the pain for a while imho, painkillers are designed for stuff like what you're going to be going thru. be well....
i 2nd the white willow bark. haven't used it myself, but my parents use natural medecins and use that instead of asprin, just comes in little tablets.
