What Does A Lump On The Upper Gum Indicate?

About 6 weeks ago i got an infection in my mouth. I used antibiotics for it but the pain never went away. There has always been a constant lump at the top of my gum under my nose. One side of my face is constantly getting pain and my right nostril is always getting blocked. There is a matelic liquid always draining from my top front tooth and my top teeth are getting lose. I have pains and numbness on that side of my face constantly going down to my neck. Yesterday i was walking home and had fatigue and felt a bit faint. Is there something wrong with me?? Thank you.
