### input:
All 4 of my wisdom teeth are almost fully out now, except for a small flap of gum over my bottom right one. They seem to fit in my mouth just fine with my other teeth, but for the past week Ive been sick with what I assumed to be Strep or the flu. For the past few days Ive noticed that the right side of my face is swollen and my gums around that bottom right wisdom tooth is swollen, inflamed, and VERY painful when I swallow/drink/eat/talk. I can also taste what I assume to be is pus coming off of it. Tonight it seems worse, I feel feverish, dizzy, and also kind of like the right corner of my mouth and lips are numb. I dont have insurance, so I dont want to go to the ER unless its really necessary. What should I do?

### output:

Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query. The swelling over the face and pain is because of the infection over the gums of wisdom tooth. And it's spread to involve tissue spaces called space infection. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral maxillofacial surgeon and get the infected flap removed(aperculectomy) if sufficient space is available in the jaw for the wisdom tooth, if not the tooth has to be removed.Meanwhile, you can take course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500 mg TID and metronidazole 400 mg BID for5 days(if you are not allergic). Regarding your insurance, you can get the tooth treated in an educational dental institute, where the treatment will be done with nominal price. But get the tooth treated as early as possible to prevent further complications.I hope my answer will help you. Take care.
