Are Headaches And Pus Pockets In The Mouth Due To Tooth Infection?

I need advice on weather a parasite infectin can be caused by a bad tooth infection due to a piece of root left in after I had a root canal years prior? I have berm dealing with runny eyes and mucus forming in my eyes. I've been to an eye dr and my dr and they say it's allergy related. This is not true. I have dealt with allergies and this different. I have bad headaches and a pus pocket forming inside my mouth by the gums. I got Baxin prescribed to me today and plan on having my tooth removed all together since I believe that it is the "root" to the problem. I've waisted at least $3,000 on this tooth after the root canal, post and crown expense and many problems after resulting in more $$. I'm so upset because I can't afford a inplant so what would you suggest?

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain pus pocket in mouth along with headache seems to be due to deeply decayed tooth that is leading to pus formation below the root tips of tooth leading to dental abscess formation..

I would suggest you to consult an Oral Surgeon and get evaluated and an x ray can help in confirmation of cause..
But as you already have failed root canal extraction of tooth followed by antibiotics and painkillers is an appropriate treatment..

You can proceed with a bridge placement in case if you cannot afford implant..
Secondly eye discharge along with mucous can be due to infections like Conjunctvitis, Blepheritis, eye alleries etc..
So in case if you are advised with allergies anti allergics can help in providing relief..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
