If by flu-like symptoms you mean fever and pain, the answer is yes.if your wisdom tooth is semi-erupted some times cause the disorder called "Pericoronitis"in which the gum tissue around the wisdom teeth becomes swollen and infected.when the tooth is semi-erupted(break through the gum) This allows an opening for bacteria to enter around the tooth and cause an infection.if you just have a little pain with regular salt and water you solve the problem but in sever case you need to go to your dentist for possible antibiotics and tooth extraction .

They can treat the infection normally without pulling the tooth. See a dentist if you have pain.

My son had this problem some years ago and he was hospitalized twice with many tests and treatment.  One day a friend told him to get up early in the morning and without brushing his teeth, keep drinking glasses of water up to 5 or 6.  Then wait for 45 minutes and brush your teeth and take breakfast. He said he would be well in 3 days.  My son felt much better the next day and did this for 3 days.  Always drink plenty of water during the whole day even if you are not sick.  Try this it works and keep a diet of non spicy food especially red chillies.

IT could be an infection of some type. There are also diseases that cause fevers, such as lupus. Also it could be the heat. I know in the summer time I run a low grade fever, it's pretty normal for me. I did talk to a doctor about it. \n\nSeeing a doctor is advisable. ;0)

I am a dentist.\n\nIt depends.  The answer is likely, "no, don't be worried".\n\nSome idiot above me said you need antibiotics, but is probably oblivious of the fact that infections typically don't develop until 4 to 5 days after the surgery.\n\nThe lump could be a lot of things.  It could be simply swelling.  It could be a small hematoma.  It could be granulation tissue building up.  It's hard to say.  See your dentist to have it evaluated.

If you have a problem with your tooth, it can very easily manifest itself as a headache, especially behind/around your eyes.  You should call the dentist and have the date moved up/closer so you can get it taken care of immediately.  A person should only be on antibiotics for 7 to 14 days.  After that, the bacteria become resistant to the medication, and this could very well be what has happened.  The bacteria that caused the abscess have most likely become resistant and are now migrating to other parts of you body.  Have the date moved closer, and also have your dentist put you on a more potent antibiotic.

Modify your routine, switch dietary habits, multivitamins, lots of liquids pretty and let it run its course.  You really can't speed up its course.  You can prevent it with healthy diet, and avoidance of those with teh fever.\n\n\n....And stay away from china town. sorry couldn't help it.

She might.  If her mucous is green-ish, you should take her to the doctor.  If she isn't running a fever now, you will probably be okay to wait until Monday.  Good luck.

Please see a Dentist or Oral Surgeon immediately. You have an infection and need an antibiotic in order to get rid of it. I went through the same thing, fatigue, temperature, aching, and dizziness. I had my employer prescribe an antibiotic then had a root canal (RCT). The antibiotic is a temporary solution, it will not take care of this problem permanently. If it is a wisdom tooth, you simply need an extraction. But only a dentist can make a proper diagnosis. It is possible to die from an infection like this, but those are extreme cases. The only way to take care of your problem is to see a Dentist, have a radiograph, and exam. They will make an appropriate treatment plan. Check your area, see if they have medicaid offices, free dental clinics in place, or clinics that have a sliding scale fee. Maybe your dental office has some sort of credit company they work with that can help you.

No! Your body needs all that energy to fight the bacterias, do try to avoid all kinds of vigourous activities until you're fine. Or your illness could just drag on longer.

You really shouldn't, the risk of spreading the infection to others is great, the risk of raising your temperature to dangerous levels is great, the risk of heart attack if your temperature gets too high is too great.\n\nStay home, rest, relax. When you go back to exercizing, start slow, build back up.

If the fever persists you must go see a Dr.  A viral infection can cause a fever, but it will go away after a few days.  (Like the flu)  If it is bacterial (Like strep) you symptoms are going to get worse and you could get really sick.  Instead of paying for a simple dr's visit you might end up in the hospital.\nIf the fever persists or you develop any more symptoms please go to the Dr.  Check with your local county hospital.  They usually have sliding scale fees for people with no insurance.  Or go to a small urgent care clinic.  They can be less expensive than a private Physician.

It is normal for people with fevers to become tired and sleep a lot. The fever is a result of her body trying to fight off the virus, and that takes up a lot of energy. Because it is a virus, there's nothing you can do but wait it out anyway, so just let it run its course. It may take about a week or so; usually symptoms subside in approximately 7 days.
