Hi, i first had a jaw ache in 2018, i was giving by the doctor an excercise to do which helped also i started take 10mg Amitriptyline which really helped, then slowly it disappeared. it came back the beginning of June 2022. it felt like a really bad toothache, the dentist confirm with an xray that the tooth was fine, its worse than the first time i had it feels like a raging toothache or it feels like a dull ache. i have double up on the amitriptyline so its waking me up in the nite, i cant remember what the excercises were in 2018, as they really helped

.Has anyone please got any suggestions. thank you. Marie.

    Oral health antibiotics are good sometimes, but they cause issues within the gums. Alternative antibiotics needed.
