Had an infection below an extraction socket and bone graft to treat it. Should I wait for appointment, or try to be seen ASAP?

There is still pus coming out from the area, but my periodontist, my endodontist and primary care dentist can't find the source. The pus is very little they say. The caries on the front tooth was just treated. The periodontist did an incision to clean the reappearing pus. I have an appointment to get a second opinion by a periodontist in 12 days, but worry that the infection could spread into my body or further into the jaw bone. Should I wait for my appointment, it try to be seen ASAP.
