I already called my doctor then he said ist normal because of the hole due to abscess. Please help me.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The swelling near the eyes, face is due to the spread of infection from the tooth resulting in space infection. Usually after starting the root canal treatment the swelling will reduce, because the puss will Chat Doctor.  So, it is not normal to have swelling after starting root canal treatment. If I am your treating doctor, I would suggest you to take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and Slavonic acid 625 mg and metronidazole 400 mg BID, for 5 days. Consult an endodontist and get the tooth treated and irrigated. Once the swelling comes down and infection reduces get the root canal filled. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
