HelloI recently got diagnosed with sever gum disease , I went to see my dentist because of a gum infection 3 weeks ago he put me on anti biotics , they not only did not work but the infection got worse I went to the ER for some penicillin also did not work at one point I had six abscess in my mouth not only did they not go away but they keep spreading ! , to add Ive lost about 7pounds , lost appetite , nausea and blood (tar) in stool .I went back to my dentist today and he ask that I get a physical as soon as possible Im very concerned !What could be wrong with me?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query, the multiple abscess could be a multiple periodontal abscess it could be because of poor maintenance of the gums, or it could be secondary to diabetes. Consult an oral physician and get the radiograph done like OPG and blood investigation to rule out diabetes. If i and your treating doctor I would have put you on penicillin, metronidazole combination. Get your teeth cleaned and if there is a tooth infection it has to be treated. Get the RBS AND FBS done. If its high then consult a general physician also. Do saline gargling3-4times. I hope my answer will help you. Take care.
