What Causes Sensitivity In The Nostril Post Chipped Front Tooth Restoration?

front tooth chipped, got it fixed at the dentist today, as soon as freezing started to wear off, very sensitive nostril, feeling like I have to sneeze, runny nose, mucus draining. Is there a connection between this and the dental work? is it of concern if so? Female, age 32, 5'11', 210lbs, history of anxiety and exercised induced asthma.

Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Your symptoms are pointing towards allergic reaction to the anaesthesia solution causing the symptoms of sneezing, sensitivity of nostrils, and nasal drainage..

It can also be due to irritation of the sinus due to the tooth causing the following symptoms..

Do not worry as the symptoms will get better soon..

You can take antihistamine like Levocetrizine and do steam inhalation..
Do cool compresses over the nostrils..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
