Vague question: "Other things going on" does not describe anything. You may have dental problems, allergies, or even an infection. You need to be physically examined by both a physician and a dentist. Please make appointments and feel better soon.

Get an exam: Since you are describing oral issues, start with a dental exam and be prepared for a possible referral. You need help and you need to be seen by a doctor to begin the process of figuring out what is going on.

See Dentist: See the Dentist ASAP. If what you are describing involves painful areas all inside your mouth and you feel sluggish, cranky, and it hurts to eat, and the little points between your teeth are flattening out, and you have a fever, then get in right away. These are symptoms for ANUG or trenchmouth. May also be primary herpes. Get in there to be seen. Good Luck.

See a dentist ASAP: A tooth abscess or dental infection won't go away without treatment and the infection may spread to your jaw, cheeks, sinus and to other areas of your head and neck. See a dentist ASAP.
