Bacterial Infection
"Started taking this 4 days ago, 300mg 3x daily.  After 1 day the swelling started to go down and by day 4 the swelling is gone.  After 2-3 days the pain subsided  (it is still there, but a LOT less severe).  But as the pain subsided, in came the nasty taste in the mouth.  I tried mouthwash (doesn&#039;t help)... I&#039;ve tried drinking plenty of water (doesn&#039;t help)... and I&#039;ve tried gum (works temporarily but as soon as the gums out of the mouth, the taste comes back and my jaw starts hurting when I chew it."
