dihydrocideine is a *Very* strong oral painkiller. One of the strongest, in fact. It should not make the pain worse on it's own unless you are having side effects. You should speak to your dentist if the pain is getting worse. It is very unusual for a painkiller to make the pain worse. One thing it can do is irritate your stomach lining, so watch out for unusual pain or bleeding.

You have dental pain at the mo can you take ibuprofen with the co codamol and diclofenac im taking for back pain?
No; Ibuprofen and Diclofenac are both NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). Because they work in very similar ways and have very similar side effects if you took both you could overdose. The good news is that both are equally effective for dental pain so if you are used to taking Diclofenac I would stick with that. To help with your pain there are a couple of other options to look at. Firstly you may be able to increase the strength of your co-codamol. Co-codamol is a single tablet that combines paracetamol with codeine (an opioid The two straights commonly available are 8mg of codeine per 500mg paracetamol (8/500) or 30mg codeine per 500mg paracetamol. If you are currently taking 8/500 your doctor or dentist could prescribe 30/500. Depending on the nature of your dental pain, the dentist or doctor may also prescribe alternative opioid painkillers such as Tramadol. Increasing opioid analgesia such as codeine is usually not terribly effective in dental pain but may offer you some relief You may also like to discuss local anaesthetic options with your dentist. Diflam, for example, is usually used in sore throats but can be used as a mouthwash to numb you gums. This must be discussed with your dentist first to ensure that it wont make the problem worse. Sleep is also known to effect perception of pain. So if you've not been sleeping lately (maybe because of your pain) your doctor may be able to prescribe a short course of sleeping tablets. Things are always easier to deal with after a good nights sleep. There are very few things in life as depressing as dental pain and a low mood also effects perception of pain, so try to keep a positive outlook. I hope this has given you a few things to discuss with your doctor or dentist.
