What Does Dizziness Headache & Inflammation In Rib-cage Suggest?

I have been suffering from mild dizziness, chills & fever, stiff neck, headaches and have what appears to be an abcess (?) on my gums. Am trying to make the week before going to the doctor. Does this sound like I need to go ASAP? I also recently had inflammation of the ribcage.

Thank you for choosing HCM

It is possible that the abscess on the gums is causing all the symptoms that you are having. An abscess can increase the release of a lot of toxins into the body and cause the issues that you have been having.

I recommend that you see a Doctor as soon as possible because the abscess and the infection can spread and then it will be difficult to control.

All the best and wish you a quick recovery.
Hope this helps you
