Hi, Would really welcome some informed opinion please. I recently had a route canal on front tooth after xray showed inflammation. After few days with very low pain the pain feels worse. Sometimes i have tooth pain that worsens with stress then dissapears. Sometimes i have tooth pain and it is real infection. I cannot tell difference anymore. Fridays are worse when i know i have to last weekend without dentists available. I have had lots of treatment some of which i dont know i needed. I am writing this 7 days after my root canal and the pain is bad, but i dont know its bad beacause its bad or because im imagining it bad. Tooth not sensitive to touch as it was prior. Is this Atypical Adontalgia as just heard of this condition? Many Thanks

    Use antibacterial fluoride mouthwash. Use the mouthwash 3 times a day until pain goes away. Make sure the mouthwash is warm before gurgling if cold it will make pain worse temporarily.
