What Causes Light Headedness And Pain In Mouth/face?

My dad has been suffering from being light headed, this starts off with a pain in his mouth, this pain spreads up his face, making his nose run and then leaving him light headed. Doctors said it was a tooth ache, he has been to the dentist and they have said they don t know what it is. Any idea?

Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM,

Read your query, as your dad has headache , running nose this can be due to toothache , may be there is carious tooth, painful and swollen gums , or pain can be due to sinusitis also .
For this I will suggest you to consult oral medicine specialist and go for proper diagnosis of oral cavity , if this pain is due to tooth related then go for its treatment and if pain is not related to tooth then consult ENT specialist that pain might be related to sinus.

Hope it will help you.
Wishing you good health.

Regards ,

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

This could be due to toothache i would suggest you to take an OPG radiograph of the mouth and get it examined by another Dentist for second opinion.
Take tab nimi for pian relief.

Take care!
