Hi, I had a gum abcess that needed 3 courses of antibiotics. Finally the lower right molar was extracted as this was the origin of the infection. This was 4 days ago but the abcess is still there and I have some throbbing pain in the lower jaw and ear on that side. The extraction site has white spots beside it. I have been brushing it with my tooth brush to keep it clean and rinsing in hot saline (3 times a day) and also Corsodyl mouth wash (twice a day) The spots could be a bit of bone but I am concerned it is infected. I can't take any more antibiotics as it may cause resistance. What do you recommend? Thank you for your help, Judeth
