What Causes Pain On Roof Of Mouth, Sinuses And Toothache?

Hi, I spent hours outside cutting grass yesterday. I came in around 7pm and when I tried to eat I felt intense pain on the roof of my mouth and my sinuses and teeth started aching. Now every time I eat, I get the same pain but no pain when I drink. Could this be an allergic reaction to something outside?

Hello,
You certainly could have caused some irritation to the oral and sinus tissues. Even breathing heavily and keeping your mouth open can stress your tissue. Dehydration is a good possibility as well.
I suggest avoiding all irritants including smoking and alcohol. Avoid spicy and acidic foods. Keep well hydrated and make sure you do not have any imbalances or vitamin deficiencies. make sure you have adequate vitamin B12. Rinse your mouth with warm salt water multiple times daily. Benadryl, the antihistamine, can be taken to reduce inflammation and offer some reduction of discomfort.
If your symptoms worsen, seek immediate medical attention. If your dental condition does not improve, see your dentist to examine your mouth for signs of an infection.
Thank you for your inquiry. I hope you feell better soon.
