Can I continue to take cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs after my period comes after tooth extraction?

Medically, toothache is not considered a disease, but if it occurs, the patient often feels pain and has difficulty eating. When the toothache is severe, many dentists will recommend that we extract the tooth to achieve thorough treatment. Cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs have a significant effect in relieving pain after tooth extraction. So, can women still use cephalosporin anti-inflammatory tablets when their menstrual period comes?

You can take ceftriaxone during menstruation. Women should pay attention to the following during menstruation:

1. It is not suitable to beat the waist

When we have sore waist and swollen legs, we relieve the discomfort by beating the sore muscles. Similarly, many women also habitually beat their waists to relieve sore waist during menstruation. But doing so would be a mistake. The soreness and swelling in the waist during menstruation is caused by pelvic congestion. At this time, beating the waist will cause more congestion in the pelvis, which will in turn aggravate the soreness and swelling. In addition, beating the waist during menstruation is not conducive to the repair and healing of the wound after the endometrium is exfoliated, leading to increased bleeding and prolonged menstruation.

2. Not suitable for physical examination

In addition to being unsuitable for gynecological examinations and urine tests, it is also not suitable to have blood tests, electrocardiograms and other examinations during menstruation. Because of the influence of hormone secretion at this time, it is difficult to obtain real data.

3. Not suitable for tooth extraction

I'm afraid that few dentists will ask you whether you are menstruating before extracting a tooth, but you must know that you cannot extract a tooth during your menstrual period! Otherwise, not only will the amount of bleeding increase during the extraction, but there will also be a bloody smell in your mouth for a long time after the extraction, which will affect your appetite and lead to malnutrition during menstruation. This is because during menstruation, the endometrium releases more tissue activating substances, which activate the plasminogen in the blood into plasmin with anticoagulant effects. At the same time, the number of platelets in the body also decreases, so the body's coagulation ability is reduced and the hemostasis time is prolonged.

4. It is not suitable to use shower gel to clean the genitals

The vagina is prone to odor during menstruation, especially in summer. However, it is not healthy to use shower gel to clean the vagina while taking a bath, or to repeatedly wash the vagina with hot water. Instead, it is easy to cause vaginal infection and lead to itching. Because the female vagina is normally a slightly acidic environment, which can inhibit bacterial growth, but during menstruation the vagina becomes alkaline, the resistance to bacteria is reduced, and it is easy to be infected. If you do not use professional vaginal cleaning fluid or repeatedly wash with hot water, the alkalinity will increase. Therefore, you need to choose professional vaginal cleaning liquid to clean your vagina, especially during menstruation.

It is completely possible to continue taking anti-inflammatory drugs after menstruation after tooth extraction. Taking anti-inflammatory drugs after tooth extraction can prevent gum infection after tooth extraction, and continuing to take anti-inflammatory drugs during menstruation will not have any effect on menstruation.
