I am at a loss. Oral surgeon and the ENT said sinuses are clear. I know there has been cases of injections causing nerved damage like Trigeminal neuralgia. The neurologist said it was an anxiety reaction from the injection and that it would go away. This was in May. I have facial tightness as if someone was pulling my face from the neck and I think thats why my breathing seems off . Has anyone had or heard of facial tightness after dental work. I dont have any shooting pain. Its tightness and the intensity varies. At times, left side of the cheek has a burning sensation. Im constantly congested and no nasal meds help that much. When I do have a clear nose, breathing does not feel natural or refreshing. Im horrified that I will permanently be like this for the rest of my life. The quality of my life has changed.

According to the ENT who has a background in neurology said that I stretched a nerve due to opening my mouth to wide for too long. When the nerve is stretched it can affect your tmj muscle which is across your cheek and behind your ear. She said it would go away in time and to massage the areas. The area is not as tight but im still need tooth 15th replaced and that might be causing strain on my muscles as well. Another problem I have is the nose stuffiness, its been so diffucult, Ive been off the nasal spray but probably caused more damage to my nose. This all started from a botched root canal done last year in Feb. Life has been hard. IM going to another ENT in Los ANgeles to see what I can do, it sucks not to breath normal.
