Jeff, It's entirely possible that the rash is an allergic reaction to the DMSO, not the silver. It is also entirely possible that whatever type of infection was causing the tooth pain is now working it's way out of the body, hence it would not respond to suppression via cortisone or benadryl. This isn't necessarily an allergic reaction to silver. Another possibility is that there was a contaminant in the silver solution that may be the cause... made worse by using DMSO.

I didn't really think it possible but it is looking like my sis did. She has a bad tooth and I gave her a 24 oz bottle of CS with 4 drops of DMSO in it and told her to soak the tooth as often as she wanted and the pain should subside in a day or two. On the second day she awoke with a rash on her face and down her neck. She has been on benadryl and hydrocortisone cream and now they have up her to atarax because its not going away. I am not understanding how CS could do something like this. [j] Jeff
