Last year I got my first root canal.

The problem I mentioned in that thread has persisted and last night was so bad I thought I'd be phoning area dentists this morning to get an extraction.
I should say that most of the second half of last year and most of this year there hasn't been really any pain as much as just discomfort.
The last time it was looked at I was told there was an infection and I was prescribed antibiotics.
I took those but it didn't seem to change much.
For pain I am using mostly clove oil, Tylenol, and starting last night I started taking an antibiotic again. This morning the pain had subsided, thankfully, but I called my dentist anyway and have an appointment with them in the morning.
As much as I hate the idea of it - I may opt to have it extracted, if it makes the issue go away. Because so far no one can explain what's causing this discomfort and occasional pain.
This is the lower left back molar (2nd Molar).
We'll see what my dentist says tomorrow......
