Abscessed tooth..I think?!
Question: Abscessed tooth!.!.I think!?
I think I have an abscessed tooth!. It is on the bottom left side pretty much right at the corner of my mouth!. Anyways, it is not really that painful just really uncomfortable!. That side of my jaw has swollen pretty badly!. I guess it is my gums that are swollen, Im not really sure when I open my mouth I can't see much of anything but I can fell it and it is visibly noticeable from looking at my jaw!. So my question is does anyone know of anything that I can do to help the swelling go down or relieve some of the pressure!? I have a dentist appt but because of school starting back up I could not get in anywhere until sept 4th!. I I really appreciate all your help!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would put a cold pack on it as much as possible and take a pain reliever!. Call that dentist and ask them what to do in the mean time!. Ask them to call you right away if they get a cancellation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
