What Are The Side Effects Of Apicoectomy Surgery?

I had an Apicoectomy (Apico procedure) done on my upper tooth #14 six days ago. This was done because of a faulty root canal on the same tooth many years ago which caused it to recently flare up and become infected. I have been taking Amoxicillin since the surgery six days ago. The swelling is subsiding, and the pain is slowly diminishing, but this morning I started sneezing and my nose has been running all day. Just wanting to know if this is normal?

Thanks for using Health care Magic.

Studied your query..

Good that you completed the treatment.

According to what signs and symptoms you have written,it shows the tooth is recovering normally.

Related to the sneezing and running,this is not related to the treatment which you have undergone,this can be that you may be developing cold symptoms.

You can visit a GP and get it treated .

Thanks and regards
