What can I use to relieve the painful sore in my left cheek caused by a crooked wisdom tooth rubbing against it, since taking Becosules has not helped and I want to avoid getting the tooth pulled right away?
Since the sore is caused by the physical rubbing of your wisdom tooth rather than a vitamin deficiency, multivitamins like Becosules won't provide relief. To help soothe the pain and heal the ulcer, you can apply a topical anesthetic gel containing lidocaine directly to the sore area. Rinsing your mouth with warm salt water three to four times a day will also promote healing and keep the area clean. While these measures offer temporary relief, please consider visiting a dentist soon to evaluate the tooth, as simply smoothing the sharp edge might prevent the need for an immediate extraction.
