What Could Chronic Facial Pain Post A Dental Anesthesia Shot Indicate?
My father had an injection inside his mouth to recieve a filling. Its been about 8 months now and he still has slight pain. In cold weather the pain increases, its causin general hea pain and on the left side of his face a "bag" has developed under his eye which has come from the pain. Any possibility that the dentist made a mistake or any other idea what's causing the pain?

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, dont worry as your father has swelling on restored tooth you should consult dentist amd go for investigations IOPA xray may be there is formation of abscess there can be formation of periapical pathology .
If there is periapical pathology then go for Root canal treatment.
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day.
Hope this will help you.
