It looks like the extraction site has not healed closed yet. Usually it is best to wait until the hole has closed before drilling into a tooth next to the extraction site. The air from the drill can cause debris to blow up into the socket which could cause an infection, etc.
Make sure your dentist looks at this site before he attempts to work on this other tooth.

Thanks for the info Bryanna. I have had a bad sinus infection can that tooth be the problem of it? If it's filled will those sinus symptoms go away? The tooth i got pulled was abscessed and it hurt bad but i didn't know this tooth had a hole so it could been a combination. I want the sinus infection to go away but it hasn't even with antibiotics i took before the tooth to be pulled. AI did notice once i got 13 pulled it poured out yellow pus and blood so it must have been badly infection. My sinus are still yellow mucus and in the morning it's chunky. I'm just trying to get back to being my normal self and wonder what all i need to do to get that way as far as my teeth go.
