What Cause Pressure In My Eyes Started After Pulling 2 Teeth?

I had 2 teeth pulled about 2 weeks ago, and everything was fine until 3 days ago. I started having alot of pressure under my left eye, started having headaches. There is a hole in the back left side, where the tooth was pulled the size of a buick. Went back to the dentist and he prescribed this penicillin vk for 2 weeks. 4 pills 500mg daily...but never told me why. Gotta go back in a week. What's up?

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the head ache and pressure over the eyes might not be related to tooth extraction. but some times after extraction if there is oroantralfistula that is communication between oral cavity and maxillary sinus occurs due to traumatic extraction then you might get pressure over the sinus region, below the eyes and headache. consult a oral physician and take a radiograph of that tooth region to check this condition. you can stop using antibiotics after 5days course. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
