[|Human|] Hello,I have had an abcess tooth before that was pulled. I have another broken tooth that has been giving me trouble for quite some time, but i dont have insurance, so i have not been to the dentist. There is no swelling around the tooth, but it is painful a lot of the time. Lately my head has felt pressure. My ears are clogged and the left side of my nose is runny all the time, which is the side that the tooth is on. could this be a spreading abcess?
[|AI|]  Hi and thanks for the query, Its very appropriate for you get consulted by a dentist. It is very possible for a poorly treated tooth infection to spread, especially in case of an abscess. Nearby structures like the sinuses and the bones around can easily be attained. Osteomyelitis of nearby bones is a common complication of poorly treated tooth infections. Consulting dentist at this point in time is of utmost importance for an appropriate evaluation and treatment. Adequate Chat Doctor. Thanks for the query and hope this helps, Best regards, Luchuo, MD.
