What Does A Boney Growth Over Eye Indicate?

I have a boney growth over my right eye. Size of the end of a little finger. Started appearing this year. Seems to be in the area of the right frontal sinus. I also had upper molar crown/root canal abcess a year ago in December 2013. There was a severe infection in right side my face which was swollen out very badly. Infection from the abscess tooth no doubt badly affected my sinuses. Another abscess has reoccurred on same root canal/crowned tooth and the tooth was just extracted Thursday 11/13/2014. Could this dental infection be connected to the boney growth over my right eye?

tooth problem is to be managed by dentist, with route canal treatment. analgeic and antibiotic if required is to be given. eye cannot have a bony growth. it can be orbit. MRI is to be taken and if it is effecting your eye or sinus then you have to plane surgery after consultation with ophthalmologist orodental surgeon
