I had what I believe is an abscess tooth. The pain was unlike anything iv ever felt before and lasted for about 4 days. I'm 28 so I thought there was a possibility of a wisdom tooth? But I'm pretty sure abscess... of course I keep messing with it with my tongue 😑 well yesterday I felt like some fluids came out of it and the pain is completely gone now. Of course I started googling and now my mind is EVERYWHERE. I'm having no issues with my mouth now, but i have this headache in the back of my head almost consistently most of the day and periodically the pain shoots to the front of my head. I don't get headaches... ever... so that's what's worrying me the most. If I bend over to pick something up that's when it starts and it just doesn't stop for a long time... like I said, no tooth problems anymore! I NEED to know the odds of something serious coming from this. I CANNOT go to the dentist... just thinking about trying to call and make an appointment has me in a complete panic and balling my eyes out. There's gotta be some success stories from not going in..
