Please tell me if i have a tooth abcess and would it be ok if i left it for 3 days?

Computer problem: There's a problem trying to diagnose you over the internet on a computer.. No one can see you ! we can't possibly tell if you have an abscess. In addition, it is not ok to leave an abscess for three days.. It can spread to other parts of your body and cause a life threatening condition. Seek help at once.
