I've been recently diagnososed with TNP (Trigeminal Neuropathic Pain) This started from a root canal on my upper #3. Immediately after the surgery, I could taste the cement in the back of my throught every time I swallowed This was performed /without antibiotics before or after the root canal. My pain came back 3 days later and intensified. I went to another endodonstis and he said I have some form on neuralgia, but ultimatly did a retreat. The pain intensived, so I pulled hei thooth.

This is a typical story, but I cannot seem fin find a cure! All I heard is that there are no surgeries for a damaged nerve and medication is my on answer. Could there be a sinus infication causing inflamtion to the maxiallry nerev? I seem to have relief when I take antibiotics.

All I know, is this pain is not giong away. Started like a dull lingering tooth ache and now flares up to a 8-9 on the pain scale and will sit there for hours. Taking Lyrica, but that does'nt give me full pain relief.

Any help would be appreciated.
