[|Human|] 28 54 235 I am on Clindamycin hcl and Tramadol for abscessed tooth. My lower left jaw is swollen. I need to chat with a dentist. I started the Clindamycin on 5/30. The swelling has went down a bit, but not much. Will it ever go down?> or will I need to be drained?

Hope this will help you. Wishing you good health.
