I've had the flu for just over a week now, and on Monday morning I awoke to excrutiating toothache. I called and got an emergancy appointment at the dentist, but after thoroughly checking my tooth, said that it was fine, and have I been ill? I told him about the flu (as if he couldnt have guessed) and he said I have sinusitis, where my sinuses are blocked, swelling and pressing on nerves in my face, causing the toothache. He said just to give it time and it will pass. I have been up all night again with the pain, which has now spread right across my cheeckbone and behind my eye... toothache in your eye is not the most pleasant experience, I can assure you... I saw my GP on Wed, who have me a nasal spray, but there is still no improvement...
I have tried inhaling menthol steam, I have stood in a hot shower for an hour, nothing works.... My nose isnt blocked, just the sinuses...
Can anyone give me some advice please? I dont think I can take it for much longer...
