What Causes Constant Headaches Post Placement Of A Dental Post?

i just had a dental post put in upper left mouth. the dentist had to back it out and put in a small post? because he believes the original was compressing the bone (I was in constant pain). Now since he put the smaller one in or backed it out, whatever, I have had a constant headache (almost migraine like) on the same side has the post. Yes, the mouth pain is much less but now this headache won t go away no matter what I take for it. I even resorted to taking an NSAID which I am allergic but was desperate. How do I get relief? Do I have him remove the post and write off the $700.00 I just paid for the stupid thing? I don t know what to do but it hurts and I still have to work while it HURTS. Help?

Hello,

* The constant headache after dental procedure indicates referred pain via neuronal pathway as trigeminal nerve or else.

* Kindly consult an expert neuro physician for workup of the cause of the same rather than taking pain killers to damage the rest of the body system as kidney or else.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
