Pain In Gums And Teeth, Swollen And Irritated Tongue, Difficult To Swallow, Had Fever. Tooth Abscess?

Hi there I went to the doctor the other day for what I thought was possibly strep throat and still could be but I have new symptoms.... My entire mouth hurts gums , teeth , swoolen and irritated tounge, i can only drink water which still hurts alittle.. Do you have any other possiblities? I m concerned because I have had a high fever for 4 days now. I looked online and the closest match to my symptoms was a tooth abcess which I do have a broken tooth. What should I do?
