Hi Necroskitter,
Do you still have the stitches in? If so, then you could have unknowingly pulled on them and that could create soreness and discomfort.
How do you know that the sinus perforation closed within the first few days post op? Perhaps it was only partially closed and it reopened? Even if that did happen, if the perforation was very small, it may still heal okay on its own.
If your symptoms continue to worsen, then see the surgeon sooner than your scheduled appointment. Otherwise, if you are scheduled to see him this week then that should be okay.

As far as i can tell i didn't Open the perforation again....Just looking for piece of mind. I have a Dental appointment in a few days and was wondering if i should wait till then or Call them sooner. Any input would be greatly appreciated
