O My Tooth and Your Ache

Badly suffering from toothaches these days. Doctors are no help. Toothaches or teethaches??? I don’t know what’s the right word for it. Different varieties of aches are appearing in different teeth all the time. I am never sure which tooth is actual sufferer. Seven teeth have gone through the procedures. Three are in queue. I’m sure all those seven victims were innocent and suffered more in doctor’s hand. The one with actual problem is still at large. Anyhow, they keep on reminding their sufferings now n then.

We live in Google world. Every remedy lies in Google, and Google only. But here, Google is no better than doctors, even worse. Thousands of remedies are available with no true help. It hasn’t reduce the pain, but I must admit, has increased my knowledge bank.

Clove and peppermint were always in my list for toothache. But I never knew that onion and garlic also worked. (I didn’t try anyway). Asafoetida is the new finding. It’s useful for toothache in my old-age too. I’m going to try it for sure. It’s my childhood friend. But the true friend in my old age – oats, could also work miracles. And what’s this wheatgrass and how to find it? somebody tell me please. Thank you very much. But the best discovery is the name of Whiskey. It numbs the gum which results in lessening the ache. Wow. Now would you please excuse me. I’m going for the treatment.
