I have a dentist appt tomorrow for extraction its been hurting since friday, feeling ill and in pain. should i take antibiotics now or wait? no fever

See below: Speak with the dentist or oral surgeon who will be performing the extraction for their advise. Once the tooth is addressed, healing will begin and you will start to feel better. Discuss with the dentist the replacement options of the tooth prior to the extraction. Optimally, there should be an option for a bone graft at the time of the extraction for the future placement of an implant if warranted
