What Causes Under Eye Pressure After Root Canal Treatment?

I had a root canal redone 3 days ago due to extreme pain caused by reinfection. Today I noticed pressure under my eye on the same side and a foul smell whenever I blow my nose. Is this related? Will this go away on its own? I am currently taking amoxicillin.

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the pressure over the eyes could be because of the periapical abscess even the foul smell. once the infection is treated through RCT the problem will be solved. you can take metronidazole along with amoxicillin. do saline gargling. i hope my answer will helpyou. take care.
