View allI've got this minor swelling in my mouth, and while it's not causing me any pain, it's become quite noticeable. I haven't taken any medicine for it since it's not really bothering me in terms of chewing or giving me a toothache. My mouth doesn't feel dry either, but I'm still concerned. Should I be worried about this swelling, or is it something that might go away on its own?
You may be experiencing a minor dental issue. The noticeable swelling without pain could be due to a variety of reasons such as an infection or inflammation. I would recommend using an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen to help reduce the swelling. Additionally, you can rinse your mouth with warm salt water to help with any discomfort. If the swelling persists or worsens, it is best to consult with a dentist for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm having a really bad toothache and got a ketorol 10mg dispersible tablet to help with the pain. Is it okay if I just let it dissolve in my mouth instead of swallowing it? I'm just a bit unsure about the right way to take it.
Yes, you can take Ketorol 10mg dispersible tablet by allowing it to dissolve in your mouth. For severe toothache, you can take one tablet by mouth every 4 to 6 hours as needed for pain relief. Make sure not to chew or swallow the tablet whole, let it dissolve in your mouth. Remember to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
