Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Burning Pain In Lower Leg. Tooth Filled. Pain Reduced After Filling Fell Down. Is Pain Relative To Tooth?
About a month ago i had a tooth filled, a molar. Since i had it filled i have had a shooting burning pain on my lower leg, same spot every time. Within the last 24 hrs the filling fell out and the pain in my leg subsided. Could the pain have been relative to the tooth? Even though it was filled, i could still feel sensitivity in the tooth. What do you think?
Filling in the tooth has no relation with the pain in the leg.I would suggest you to get a checkup done and take painkillers. For sensitivity in the tooth i would suggest you to take an x-ray of the tooth depending upon which it can be restored or root canal treatment can be performed. Take a course of antibiotics and analgesics. Use antiseptic mouthwash rinses, maintain a good oral hygiene.
Hope this helps out.
Regards...
