Maybe/not: These are diagnoses best made in the office or hospital setting.You may just have a bad tooth. If you feel bad enough go to the ER and have it checked out.

Infection: What you have is a virulent infection that requires immediate attention. Yes, infection can rapidly spread to other organ systems.. You need to see Dentist immediately. Dentist will treat the infection and decide if you need to see additional practitioners. The key, however, is to seek IMMEDIATE treatment.
