Suggest Treatment For Tooth Abscess And Lump Under The Eye

Hello, This started 3 days ago and to me it seems like an absess bottom tooth because I can feel a round ballish (lymph node) type thing under it in my neck, and it hurts when I touch it. I don t have a toothache though. Since I first started with this I have to marks on my mouth near my lips (Look like bug bite marks) that are swollen and my lip is swollen and kind of numb. Yesterday I woke up with a red lump under my eye that s puffy (Like got punched in the eye) and the whole time I have a headache over my eye. All this is taking place on the right side of my body. I also feel like have the flu and very run down. I should probably go to hospital to get checked out but no insurance. I probably have a bad infection and pills will cur it I hope but figure would get your opinion. Thank you Bill

It is surely a periapical abscess. Lymph nodes are painfull due to infection, lymphadenitis. Fever is also due to this infection. Consult a doctor for appropriate antibiotics and antipyretics.
