Bisbee Gal Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 I saw signs at 2 dental offices this week in Ajijic (that looked closed) that said basically, Call us if you have an emergency and we will make arrangements to take care of you.

johanson Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 Probably not over the Easter weekend. If you have an emergency, I would call the San Antonio Hospital. Their telephone # is 376 689 0911 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiko Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 If you have to wait a few days you might want to pick up a box or two of Keterolaco, 10mg or 30mg. Cheap and works well to take the edge off the pain. When it comes to pain, Get ahead if it. Sublingual application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisbee Gal Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 For sure this is one place I saw with the sign saying, call us for emergencies. It is very close to Cocinart. So sorry for your dental issue over a holiday weekend. Call and see if someone answers???

You really shouldn't be prescribing medicine on an online forum. While Ketorolaco is used extensively here, it can have some very dangerous side effects, one of which is spontaneous internal bleeding. This happened to me after taking it for only 2 days. And I don't have any health conditions that would have put me at risk for this. Also, it shouldn't be taken for more than 3 days, maximum. So suggesting that someone eat a couple of boxes of them is highly irresponsible advice. A doctor or dentist who prescribes it here will never tell you any of this, and unlike Canada, where when you fill a prescription at a pharmacy, the pharmacist gives you a print-out of possible side effects and contra-indications, they do nothing of the sort here. One should always do their own online research before consuming any pharmaceuticals they aren't familiar with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only suggesting, if there is no other option, a hospital which is open 24/7, might be able to find a contact solution for an emergency dental problem.

Although OTC, it can have serious side effects as in your case. Thanks for the reminder. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take two 50 mg Tramadol pills if pain comes on strong before your dental exam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanson Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 Although one needs a doctor to write an Rx for 50 mg Tramadol pills up north, down here you can buy them over the counter without an Rx. I was also told to take two 50 Mg pills for minor pain. Down here, I simply buy 100Mg pills and only take one. It seems so much easier. I was told that I had to wait at least 4 hours before taking another dose. There are pain meds down here that are more powerful, but I am not medically trained. Please go to a Doc or dentist for any serious pain issue. And please understand I am just a patient without any medical training who is telling you what I was told to do for my particular pain problem.

johs Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 I went to Quality Care to the dentist Dr. Manuel for an emergency on a Friday afternoon. He is an excellent dentist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
