Suggest Treatment For Pain In Left Nostril And Teeth With Congestion

Hi, I m 19 years old and for the past few days have been experiencing pain on my left upper side of my teeth. Just today it hurts my left nostril to blow my nose and also I will get this random tingle in my left nostril. I feel very congested but not sure what I may have. Never have had a pain in my tooth like this before and find it strange that all the problems are occurring on the left side. Thanks, Alyssia

Hi Alyssia..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...

As per your complain and presentation of symptoms it seems that you have maxillary sinus infection known as Sinusitis and congestion,pain in teeth and nostril is due to it..
It is also possible that the infection in sinus can be secondary to tooth infection specifically molar infection as the roots of upper molars many a times lie either very close to or at times within the sinus cavity..
You should consult a dentist and get evaluated and in case of dental infection causing sinusitis a course of antibiotics and painkillers can be advised..
Tooth infection can be treated with either root canal treatment or extraction and the sinus infection will be treated with antibiotics for atleast 15 days..
For nasal congestion decongestant nasal sprays and oral medications can also be advised..


Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
