Antibiotics: Some antibiotics can cause gastrointestinal distress. The fever is most likely from the infection. Does he have swelling at the extraction site? If the issues continue please contact the oral surgeon.

Symptoms: Fever and nausea may actually be allergic response to antibiotic. Contact your Surgeon immediately. Don't wait.
