Woke Up With A Sore Jaw, Teeth. Now Having A Drippy, Runny Nose With Blood. Problem?

I woke up yesterday with the right side of my teeth and jaw sore, thinking I had clenched my teeth while I slept. Waking up this morning it was just as sore maybe worse and I started having a drippy, runny nose with blood. Because of the clear liquid and blood it was sort of watered down. This started at 9am and it is now almost 8pm and it has settled down a lot but is still happening. I sat in steam for 30 minutes, which helped the blood decrease. I also took a hay fever pill. What's going on? Help please.

Dentist,  's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Pain in the tooth can be due to bacterial infection, sore jaw can be due to the radiating pain. I would suggest you to visit the Dentist and get the checkup done take an x-ray of the tooth, such type of infected tooth is to be treated with root canal treatment to save it permanently.
Take a complete course of antibiotics and analgesics.
Take antiseptic mouth wash gargles.
Maintain a good oral hygiene, drink plenty of water and keep yourself hydrated.


Take care!
