Draining Abscess: You have a serious infection that can become life threatening. People have died from these types of untreated infections. See a dentist immediately or go to a 24/7 medical facility if you cannot get to a dentist now.

See a dentist ASAP: Parulis fistula is a sign that there is an infection and your body is draining it out. Unlike some other types of infection, a dental abscess will not get better on its own. See your dentist for definitive diagnosis and treatment. Good luck.
