Pressure In Both Eyes, Painful, Like Migraine. Had Seizures Took Topomax. Had Removed Lower Wisdom Teeth. Cause?

Hi. I have had my lower wisdom teeth removed as those are the only ones I have and i have been fine so far. I was given Anitibotics a week ago (amoxacillian) to counter the sores after surgery and all was well. The wounds have healed, but two days ago I started having an increasing pressure in both eyes, everytime i move my eyes they are in pain and feel i pressure in the back just like a migraine. I have seizures but havent had since June I take topomax, could this pressure behind my eyes be a result of the surgery or something else enterly? Please respond i have been taking motrin but it hasnt helped much at all. My eyes are also sensitive to light now.

Hi, the pain you are expressing might be due to the infection after the expulsion of the wisdom tooth. The infection would have spread to the sinuses, and behind the eyes, and causing the symptoms.
As there is a possibility of mixed infection, and also the anaerobic bacteria. So treatment is to be given in this line.
I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe ofloxacin, ornidazole, serratio peptidase, and anti inflamatories. Thank you.
