Make sure you take an antibiotic to prevent any more spreading of abscess. Try a dental clinic in a hospital or travel to LONDON to find a dentist who can help you. Losing a tooth that can be saved can be more harmful to your dentition as well as costly. You don't want to take antibiotics for ov er two months.

Abscess = Infektion. Untreated abscess can cause systemic damage toothier organ systems. March is a long way off. A course of antibiotics is usually 5 days, only small part of those 3+ months. And once antibiotic discontinued the infection can come roaring back. Find a root canal specialist Endodontist for prompt treatment.

There is an intermediate procedure called an open and drain that will buy some time and not be expensive. I’d recommend an Endodontist for the highest success rate.
