I am having a constant headache. I had a crown, then root canal on the upper 3rd tooth from the back. It never resolved so was pulled. I have taken 6 antibiotics in the past 4 months. I have had a CAT scan that shows the sinus cavity is ok, blood work-up shows no infection. I have a painful headache that circles my eye on that side. It s been 2 months since the tooth was pulled and still the area around the site is rippled and sort. The best guess was that was viral. What should I do next?
Hello, The pain which you've just described sees like a referred pain. The origin of the pain seems to be the tooth which might still be harbouring some sort of infection. This is just a speculation and your dentist will be a better judge. If you would like you can always go for a second opinion. Also I would like you to get your eye checked once to rule out any abnormalities. Hope this helps you.
