[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. You were having infected tooth and this can cause aspiration of pus in the lungs and development of lung Infection. So we should get done chest x-ray to rule out lung infection as a cause for your coughing. Your metallic taste is due to antibiotics you are taking. If chest x-ray is normal than no need to worry much for cough. Take antihistamine and anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
