i have tooth problem. I was paining last week, and i was advised a root canal. Now the pain is not much, but I have a swelling on the jaws of my cheek. My family dr has prescribed zocef 250 mg. It will reduce the swelling. can i take it,? Will my swelling go away? I want to resume by job very urgently.
Hi! Thankyoy for posting in ChatDoctorzocef is a cephalosporin antibiotic. It will reduce the infection thereby reducing the swelling. But this may recur if you do not go for the treatment. You can go ahead with the root canal once the swelling is reduced. It will allow any Chat Doctor. Regards.
