[|Human|] I have a low grade fever, metallic taste in my mouth. I fractured my tooth (quite some time ago),Also - my fingertips look a little cyanotic and I have been  dizzy on and off all day. Recently lost my insurance(divorce) and do not know if ER will take me.
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. Thanks for your query. There is clear-cut indication of infection according to symptoms mention by you. The fractured tooth got infected, and the infection probably spread to surrounding area like gums and periodontal area this is responsible for metallic taste in mouth. I would suggest you to :-- To maintain proper oral hygiene.- Do beta-dine rinses thrice a day.- Take paracetamol for fever and pain.- Try to eat with side other than fractured tooth. Consult dentist /endodontist for proper examination and to RLE out condition like upper respiratory track. Doctor will examine physically or may order x-ray to find out the extent of infection. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics (metronidazole) for a week. After the antibiotic course doctor will reexamine the tooth and may perform root canal the give crown or perform composite buildup. If he/she find that bone is not sufficient then doctor may extract tooth. For now Chat Doctor. Hope your concern has been resolved. Best Wishes,
