Hi Stacy, Welcome to the pain boards. Vicodin is considered to be stronger than tramadol, although tramadol might be the more effective pain killer dose to dose, I'm not sure.
1. Warm Salt Water. Rinsing your mouth with warm salt water is one of the easiest and most effective ways to get rid of wisdom tooth pain. Take hot water and dissolve a few tablespoons of salt in it. When the salt water has cooled to a warm temperature, rinse your mouth with it for a few minutes and you will find noticeable relief.
3. Rest Often. When youâre healing from wisdom tooth surgery youâre going to be in pain or drugged up on painkillers and so your body will need lots of time to rest. Make sure to take naps and relax. Sleep in.
