I had a root canal done 3 months ago. As a result a small abscess form on the gum at the base of that tooth. It ended up blasting and discharging through an opening on the gum. As been continuously discharging for the last 3 months very foul smelling pus, needing to be drained twice a day, I start questioning if I should take antibiotics or what can I do. Thanks in advance.
