[|Human|] Hi  I have a pain at the side of my face which I think is a toothache.  I have been to a dentist and she took xrays and I need a crown - the tooth is cracked but she felt the nerve was still ok and that I may have an ear infection.  I went to my doctor and he said my ear cannal is a little red and I may have a tooth infection.  Im still getting pains - mostly at night and still dont know what the problem is.  Should I go back to the dentist or the doctor?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The features what you are telling looks like a tooth infection. This kind of pain comes in case of pulpits. Consult a good oral physician and get it evaluated and diagnosed. If it is infected then get the tooth treated with RCT and get the crown done after that. Meanwhile you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500 mg and metronidazole 400 mg TID for 5 days (if you are not allergic). I hope my answer will help you, take care.
