Antibiotic: Sorry, we can't prescribe over this site. It's for answering general medical questions. If the tooth is as bad as you describe, this is a problem that has gone untended for a log time. Find a local Dentist on your travels and have antibiotic prescribed. Take all of the pills, do't quit early. Have tooth removed before Rx runs out.
