Having Infected Teeth. Feeling Of Something Bouncing In Head While Running. What Could It Be?
I've got some infected teeth that im getting out in a few weeks but, I think I already have infection from the teeth in my head. I can walk, jump or run and it feels like there is something bouncing in my head and it goes straight to my tooth. Will I be okay after the teeth is out and does it sound like infection in my head?

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Infections of the brain would normally be associated with symptoms such as drowsiness, confusion, fever, headaches, seizures.
If there is infection of the meninges (this is called meningitis) there would be symptoms such as headache, fever, neck stiffness, drowsiness or confusion.
Severe infection of the mouth can slightly increase the risk of stroke but is not usually associated with any other complications involving the brain.
From your description, there does not appear to an infection of your brain however if you develop any concerning symptoms then you can consider visiting your doctor for an assessment.
I hope this helps

hi
yes... it will be okay after the tooth is out... the infection is not in your head... it has reached to the apex of your tooth...
you can go for other options like RCT and restoration according to the condition of your tooth involved by your dentist... avoid extraction of tooth, because its precious...

hello and welcome to HCM forum,
I will be glad to answer your query,
I would like to inform you that infection in the tooth does not spread to your head, it is only the nerve which which supplies your tooth transmits painful impulses which can be felt on the complete side of the face including side of the head sometimes.
Do not worry, the tooth extraction will not cause any harm to your head.
Removal of infected tooth will resolve the infection and the associated symptoms,
I hope this answer was useful,
I wish you good health,
take care.

Hello,
Welcome to hcm forum.
Feeling of bouncing can be due to spread of infection into sinuses through abscess formed under the tooth.
Get a thorough clinical as well as radiological evaluation done.
Get the abscess drained and curetted.
Take complete course of antibiotics-analgesics prescribed.
Take adequate rest.
Hope this helps.

Hi
As your tooth is infected, you need root canal treatment.
Afterwards your pain will subside as your pulp will be debrided.
The nerves in pulp is responsible for pain in head so don't worry .
Consult your dentist for the treatment of that tooth , follow prescrition and you will be alright soon.
Wishing you cure soon
