Hi,
Thanks for asking the query,
After reading your clinical history i suspect that you have developed severe infection in the your tooth, such type of infected tooth need to be treated with Root canal treatment to save it permanently.
I would like to tell you that antibiotics and analgesics will give temporary relief to your condition so i will encourage you to start with the treatment.
Nausea is due to the use of antibiotics prescribed to you, if the medications dont suit you i would suggest you to get it changed.
If you are having acidity then you can take antacid such as ranitidine twice half hour before meals.
Hope this helps out.
Regards...

Hello,
thanks for using health care magic.
Every collection of pus has to be drained and that is
the first treatment that is required along side antibiotics
such as amoxicilline and metronidazole or amoxicilline
and clavulanic acid.
The chest pain you feel could be due to a stress ulcer or
due to a tear of the gut due to repeated vomiting and to
a far extend could be due to a chest infection.
You should meet your doctor and discuss in details with
him on the appropriate management.
Meanwhile, paracetamol, antacids to chew and some
antibiotics will do as you go to meet your doctor.
Hope this helps you.

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The medication for tooth abscess do not have any association with chest pain.
Nauseous feeling after taking medicines may be due to reaction of antibiotics taken.
PLease make sure that you are taking medicines after taking food to fill the stomach.
Please do not take antibiotics in empty stomach.
If symptoms persists,i would advice you to visit your dentist and get the medicines replaced,
The abscess has to be drained and curetted as soon as possible.
Maintain good oral hygiene.
Take care.
