Had Dental Work Done, Right Sinus/side Of Nose, Painful, Frequent Sneezing, Running Nose, Increase In Post Nasal Drip. Cure?
Hello,
I had dental work done yesterday and since then my right sinus/side of my nose is painful, frequent sneezing, running nose and increase in post nasal drip. The Novocaine injection hurt more than usual - wondering if i should be worried as this has not happened to be before and have had Novocaine injected in the front top of my mouth before. Thanks.
