Hi,
Hoping to get some info from anyone regarding my current problem. I have an abscessed tooth and last week I went to the dentist for the first time in years. My face was really REALLY swollen and after a CT scan I was prescribed antibiotics. I took the last one this morning after a 7 day dose and, although minimal, I still have some facial swelling. It is uncomfortable and I can feel it but it does not hurt. The dentist told me today that they are unable to help, I will need oral surgery to take the tooth out under GA. I have an appointment with another oral surgeon on Wednesday next week and will schedule an appointment for GA in the beginning of January.
Question is, will I be OK for another month with this condition?? I keep reading about serious complications and stuff about dying etc.
Any advise at all??
