nasal discomfort

[nora6321]

I have a tooth ache in my upper molar left side.  But, I am also bothered by the vein which runs up from the lip to the side of the nose and my left eye is swollen.  I have also had a nose bleed and what feels like a bad head cole.  This is all on the left side.  Could this tooth situation be causing all this?  Nora

Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
Yes, it is a strong possibility that your upper molar’s rot canal is infected. All the symptoms can be explained by that. So consult your dentist first. However if your dentist feels that the tooth is not the cause then it could also be due to a boil inside your nose or some infection in the nasal passage. You would need to consult an ENT for that.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
