    Toothache
    I have an infection in my back tooth, the pain is excurciating, pain in my jaw, neck, and ear, hurts to swallow. Went to the ER and they gave me pencillin one every 8 hours and Vicodin 1 every 6 hours. The Vicodin m357 hasn't worked so started taking Walmart brand Tylenol pm 2 every 2 hours, now the pain comes back faster, so taking the Tylenol every hour. Should I return to the ER? I'm worried I'm taking to many pills. Went to the ER today

    You are taking too many pills and are on the verge of overdosing yourself on tylenol. Vicodin contains tylenol.

    Yes return to the ER so that they can check your serum tylenol levels to make sure you haven't damaged your liver.
