Taking medications without consult is not advisable. If she has a infection in her tooth along with and abscess , it may develop antibioma due to non treatment of the affected tooth. Kindly consult a dentist for options such as Root canal treatment or extraction of that tooth if it is not salvageable

Consult a dentist immediately as it seems the tooth has deep infection amd may require treatment. The dentist will go for an X-ray and then suggest a treatment.
