Septic: You may be becoming septic. The infection may have entered your blood stream and can be beginning to affect your overall health. This can be life threatening. Get to Dentist, Oral Surgeon, or ER with a Dental Unit NOW.

Immediate Action: These symptoms are not the normal findings for an infected tooth, unless this has been on-going for months-to-years. In which case, immediate action is required. I agree, sepsis could be the Dx, in which case not much is more critically serious than that issue. Your life may be at eminent risk.

2 separate problems: and should be treated separately. 1. For tooth infection, see your dentist or oral surgeon to seek definitive treatment that will solve the problem. 2. For lower back, see your PCP for consultation tests and treatment.
