The problem is that it is nerve pain and in his mouth, and the medicine can only be given orally. I have to brace myself twice a day by saying "Five minutes fight and pain and 11 hours and 55 minutes of enjoying life, we will cope."
If it's not Neurontin/gabapentin, you might want to give it a try. It's excellent for nerve pain in both critters and humans, and it's even used with zaps from spinal cord injury. I had it compounded for Buddy in fishy flavors, and he didn't mind it terribly.
