Question

I went to the clinic last wednesday and I had a strep culture taken, it came out negative but i did have a sinus infection. I have been taking sudafed and tylenol for that but since then my mouth has been getting sores in it and my gums are really red, puffy, nad sore. Its hard for me to eat. And in the back of my mouth where I got my wisdom teeth out is really painful. I also have swollen glands under my chin. What could be wrong and what should I do?

it seems that you have an ongoing infection( gingivitis,dental abcess sorethroat) and would require antibiotics. Please see your doctor again for it. also can use mouth wash mean while you can use mouthwash.
