Impacted wisdom teeth symptoms

Impacted wisdom teeth symptoms

Hi, I was wondering if the following symptoms could be attributed to impacted wisdom teeth:

-pain where the wisdom teeth should be + swollen gums (off and on)
-persistent sore throat (off and on)
-tightness in the front of the neck near collar bone
-tightness in the back of the neck
-intermittent nausea
-intermittent low grade fever
-pain in lymph areas neck, armpits, groin (pains seem to change location)
-nerve pain in various parts of the body, shoulders, feet, hands
-malaise

The symptoms have been trickling in for the past 6 weeks, starting with the gum pain and sore throat.  Could an infection in the wisdom teeth be causing these symptoms and also pressing on nerves that effect other parts of the body?  I've been on Cipro the last week and will be seeing a dentist this week.  I'm just wondering if teeth problems can cause wide spread symptoms like this?

Thanks
