abscess in mouth and 7 wk pregnant
I have an abscess which i have had 2 courses of anti biotics for and now have been referred to the dental hospital i have had 2 sets of xrays and 3 weeks ago found out i'm pregnant, the second set of xrays would have been took in early pregnancy and i have been advised not to worry about it. The problem i have npw is that the abscess has come back quite big and has a white head on it, do i need to go the hospital as an emergency or will my next appointment on Thursday be soon enough?

as for the xray, that wouldve been focussed on your mouth so im sure baby would be fine, as they say.
hope you feel better soon

Thanks, Ive been to the dentist and they are not starting treatment till september :( It is not sore at the moment just annoying, they said if the abcess gets a head on again go in to have a small incision made in it to let the stuff out of it! YUK sounds gross and i'm very sickly at the moment so hope i can avoid this!! lol
