What Is The Reason Behind Cheek Pain, Tooth And Nose Pain With Salt Like Taste Persistent In Mouth?

I have been having pain on and off for 6 months lasting over a month at a time. Pain changes places but usually starts in the ear. Then teeth start to hurt. Its now moved to the cheek and the side of my nose. Its only occuring on the left hand side.
Been to the docs and they have loomed in my ear and theres no infection and my throat doesnt hurt. My neck is tender but nothing swollen. Suddenly had strong salty taste in my mouth for the last 3 days.
Particularly bad in the night and I wake up with painful teeth, thought it was bruxism so bouggt a mouth guard but it doesnt help. The pain is driving me nuts. When I get rid of it it just comes back a month later.

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

This could be due to infection in the tooth.
Get an x-ray done of the tooth.
A root canal treatment has to be performed.
Take a course of antibiotics and analgesics.

Take care!
