Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
As far as the swollen jaw under the dental bridge is concerned, it ca be because of the gum infection secondary to the deposits below the gums and the bridge. The other possible cause can be because of trauma while brushing or flossing. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral physician and get it evaluated. If I am your treating doctor, i would have advised you to take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole(if you are not allergic), do saline gargling. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, we can treat accordingly.
Regarding the rashes on your abdomen, it can be secondary to allergic reaction to the tetanus injection. For this you need to consult a general physician and get it evaluated. It has to be treated with a course of antihistamines like cetrizine.
I hope i have answered your query. If you have any queries reply me back.
If you can upload the images of the swelling, i can give you better diagnosis and treatment plan.
Take care.
