Can listerine mouthwash cause problems

[Starlight25]

Hi
I had X-rays less than a month ago I had one tooth extracted and my clean with the hygienist is next week. Other than that the dentist told me my teeth are all fine and healthy.
About a week ago I started using listerine mouthwash after brushing and now my teeth hurt ? Only when I eat and put pressure on them the only thing I’ve done any different is the listerine could that cause teeth to ache ?
im now worried incase ive suddenly developed a mouth full of problems in the space of 3 weeks
Thankyou !

Just to add I am a very nervous patient and although I can just about now manage to get through the work needed ( if it involves that drill I don’t do as well at all ) I have OCD and ADHD and my brain likes to go to worse case scenario. I have to mentally
Prepare myself for the work I’m having done and have a plan in my head I’m currently focusing on the cleaning appointment because if that sounds like the drill I know I’m going to struggle so now I’m worried there’s some hidden problem no one spotted and they are going to tell me I need a load more work
Thanks

Just in case any of Listerine's lawyers are reading this, the following is my personal opinion only

I think the stuff is a complete waste of money and the best use for it is to clean drains with when you pour it down the sink

It's possible you're having some kind of reaction to the Listerine, it's got quite a lot of alcohol in it for starters which can be a bit irritating to the mucosa at times. I don't think you've got any other dental problems that you need to worry about.

I happen to think all mouthwashes are a waste of money (other than for specific reasons diagnosed by a dentist) and really have no place in anyone's bathroom cabinet.
