While I understand your desire to avoid medication if possible, I strongly advise against skipping the medications your dentist prescribed for your pericoronitis and partially erupted wisdom tooth. Here's why: importance of medication: infection prevention: pericoronitis is an inflammation of the gum tissue surrounding a partially erupted tooth, making it prone to infection. Antibiotics like augmentin 625 help prevent and control bacterial infections. Inflammation reduction: zero dol contains ibuprofen, which effectively reduces inflammation and pain associated with pericoronitis. Gum healing: orahelp gel contains hyaluronan, which promotes tissue healing and soothes the inflamed gum flap. Oral hygiene: hydroxyl peroxide betadine mouthwash helps control bacteria and maintain oral hygiene, crucial for preventing further infection. Consequences of skipping medication: worsening of infection: skipping antibiotics can lead to a worsening infection, causing more pain, swelling, and potentially requiring stronger medication or even surgical intervention. Prolonged pain and discomfort: ibuprofen helps manage the pain associated with pericoronitis, allowing you to function more comfortably during the healing process. Delayed healing: skipping orahelp gel may prolong the healing of the inflamed gum flap. Considering your situation: early stage: if your pericoronitis is mild and you haven't experienced significant pain or swelling, it's tempting to think the medication isn't necessary. However, even mild cases can progress quickly, making prevention crucial. Partial eruption: the gum flap covering part of your wisdom tooth creates a pocket vulnerable to food debris and bacteria, increasing infection risk. Medication plays a key role in protecting against this. Dentist's advice: your dentist has assessed your specific situation and prescribed the medication based on their professional judgment. Trusting their expertise is vital for optimal healing. Remember: the side effects of these medications are generally mild and manageable, especially given the short duration of the prescribed course. Avoiding medication may lead to longer-term discomfort and potentially more invasive interventions in the future. Alternatives to consider: discuss over-the-counter pain relievers (like paracetamol) if ibuprofen doesn't agree with you. Explore alternative topical solutions for gum healing if you have concerns about orahelp gel. Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to take the medication is yours. However, I strongly recommend following your dentist's advice and completing the prescribed course for optimal healing and infection prevention. I hope this information helps you make an informed decision regarding your medication. Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Yes, it is okay to give ibugesic plus. As it contains both ibuprofen and paracetamol. To get the best result of medicine, adhere to the prescribed dose, time, and way while giving this medicine to your child. Give it to your child orally, preferably after meals as this will prevent the chance of developing an upset stomach. If your child vomits within 30 minutes taking, give the same dose again. Never give more than the recommended dose for fast relief as that may cause unwanted effects in your child. Your child may exhibit side effects like nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, heartburn, and diarrhea after taking this medicine. These side effects are temporary and should subside once your child’s body adapts to the medicine. In case they persist or become bothersome for your child, do consult your child’s doctor on a priority basis. Ibugesic plus oral suspension orange helps lower high temperature caused by fever. This medicine is effective in treating cold and flu symptoms, sore throat, and fever. Do not take too much or for longer than you need as this can be dangerous. In general, you should take the lowest dose that works, for the least possible time.

Kindly share if you are also having burning pain over the upper part of abdomen, this might be nothing but gastric ulcer? Do you have a long history of repeated ingestion of paracetamol and ibuprofen, you see ibuprofen can cause gastric ulcer hence the blood in vomit. To confirm the diagnosis you have to get a endoscopy done. You can consult to me on Lybrate by taking online appointment for the symptomatic relief in the mean time. Thankyou.

Treating altitude sickness stop and rest where you are. Do not go any higher for at least 24 to 48 hours. If you have a headache, take ibuprofen or paracetamol. If you feel sick, take an anti-sickness medicine, such as promethazine. Make sure you're drinking enough water. Do not smoke, drink alcohol, or exercise.
