[|Human|] Hello, Im a 56 year old female, Im a smoker and for the past couple of months Ive been suffering most days of the week with intense pain in my lower left side of my mouth. During the day...no pain and as soon as I am about to lay down for bed...I cant and am usually forced to sleep upright on the sofa since its too excruciating to lay down. Ive gone to my dentist in hopes that they could pin point the problem. Had a root canal last week and scheduled to go back if the pain is still there. It is. I dont want to continue paying for teeth work if the problem is elsewhere. I have suffered from Vertigo (and received antibiotics for my ears)...could I have some sort of sinus infection?
[|AI|]  Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Read your query. The pain when lying down is because of the infection or abscess in relation to the tooth mentioned.(pain on postural variation). I would advise you to get the root canal treatment done completely for the infection to subside and get the relief from the pain. For the pain you can continue with painkiller, though there will be some pain even after initial treatment in some. Thanks and regards. Any query is always welcome.
