HI,
Pus discharge and pain indicate infection which can be controlled with the prescribed antibiotics. If the infection is in the gums or due to cheek bite then it can be controlled easily. However if it is tooth infection then even an extraction may sometimes be necessary. If the infection is in the upper teeth then it can aggravate the sinus problem. Discuss with your dentist. Hope this helps.
