Dentist today think I have an abscess.

[Twinklestar1]

I saw my dentist on Monday - suspected abscess on tooth - swelling on jaw/cheek. No pain just tended. Dentist was a bit bemused as there was no pain as such. Given antibiotics and I have to say it got worse on Tuesday and Wednesday but the swelling has gone down today and feeling much better. Appointment in 10 days to deal with the tooth ! Ugh! Hope you feel better soon xx
