The antibiotics prescribed by your dentist can take quite a long time to be effective. I have just had the same trouble and the pain was awful. But it did get better and I chose to have the tooth out. Now it is healed and I feel so much better. You should not worry too much yet. There is no connection with the boil on your back. We all get things like that occasionally. It will clear up by itself if you observe normal Hygiene. At this time of year our diet is often dodgy. Maybe you should eat more fresh fruit and vegetables to give you more resistance to boils. It will all get better, I promise.
