swollen jaw

I gor an infection in my tooth, saw an dentist and two days ago I had root canaling. Been on amoxicilling for 1 week. The problem is, now two days after the root canaling, the sweeling has increased, should I be concerned, regarding the antibiotics not be working . As my jaw is swelling up.

Gravity boots or yoga are better than a chiropracter for putting your spine back inline if thats the problem.  An aspirin sized amount of calcium powder rubbed on the gums will provide very rapid pain control.  Too much at one time will give you headache.  Rinse mouth with warm water with teaspoon salt in it or clean seawater if you can get it.  Oregano tea either cold or hot can take of infection.  Oregano oil is also available.  Chose this before taking antibiotics.  Place a teaspoon of virgin coconut oil in mouth and swish it around as long as possible also good for dental problems, called oil pulling

Don't pull your teeth out or you'll be more sorry.  Abcesses can be relieved with determination.  Stop eating and drink fresh green vegetable juices. Eat fresh green cabbage.  Blend half a small onion with one stick of celery in a cup of water. Drink slowly, swish around in mouth.

return to the dentist. you may need a different antibiotic and may need to have the root canal recleaned. the swelling you describe is not normal and no amount of swishing or hanging upside down will help.

The Ancient Egyptians wrote that onions cure 8000 diseases.  If you blend one half a small onion with a stick of celery in a cup of water, swish with it and drink it slowly.  You may find the swelling decreases.  It will certainly not interfere with anything a dentist may suggest .
