I have a toothache and an ear ache?!
Question:
I have a toothache and an ear ache?
My tooth is painful and I also have an earache, which is painful and I was wondering if the two pains could be related in any way?
Answers:
You may have an abcessed tooth. The pain and infection from an abcessed tooth can cause pain on the whole side of your face that's affected. You may also have a sinus infection. I've had severe sinus infections that made my teeth and gums ache, especially when bending forward.
In either case, you need an antibiotic to clear up the infection. If it's an abcessed tooth, the dentist will not do any work on it until the infection has subsided.
