Inform your dentist of your symptoms and medication now being taken. It is possible to have a bacteremia after procedures that cause bleeding within the oral cavity.Follow all instructions provided by your dentist for cleaning the recently treated area. Your dentist may put you on a chlorhexidine rinse. Closely monitor your mouth and report any concerns to your dentist in the area recently cleaned.You may be experiencing a coincidental respiratory condition as well. Treat any associated symptoms accordingly. Please remember to take your antibiotic as prescribed and for the correct length of time recommended by your doctor. I hope you will start to feel better soon. You have taken the correct steps to treat your symptoms. Anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen may also help reduce your symptoms.Thank you for your inquiry. </s>
