please please see your dentist, you have an abscess tooth. The puss (sorry to be crude, but...) is going into your mouth, then stomach, ect. Oh and it is staying in your mouth too, Lock Jaw time. the puss coming out of your tooth can, in the long run, kill you. Short term....ulcers, pain of stomach & intestines, bad breath, mouth sores... i'm gonna be quiet now sorry

You need to see a dentist - you may have an abcess that needs treating with antibiotics. Not scare-mongering but you need to get it checked as the "poison" that comes out of an abcess goes down into your stomach and can cause some very nasty illnesses - case in point the Olympic rower who had knee problems originating from an abcess in a tooth.

You have either an abscess, or a cavity so deep that the nerve is affected. Neither will get better without medical attention. The abscess requires antibiotics and cleaning, including having the tooth pulled. The cavity probably can;'t be filled if the tooth is too far gone. This will just get worse if you don't seek treatment ASAP.

Oil of Cloves. It's at your drugstore.
It may give some relief, but the others are right.
You shouldn't let your fear of dentists keep you from saving your life...

It's infected and you probably have an abscess in your gum. I had to have an abscessed wisdom tooth taken out this year. It had been causing me stomach upsets for well over a year but had only ached for a few days last year.
I only found out by accident what was happening as a piece broke off the tooth this year and a bad taste was going into my mouth.
Best thing is to get the tooth extracted asap. You will probably feel so much better once it is out.

yes u r lucky if it gets any worse go to the hospital, in the mean time ambisol might help, as well as Advil or Motrin , Advil is easier on the tummy
