I am dealing with weird sinus and upper jaw pressure at the moment too, had a tooth extracted there 3 months ago almost. And a carlson bridge put in. When the surgeon did the extraction of the previously root canaled tooth, he said, it was indeed very good that I had it extracted, because my root had a little curve in it and while it did not perforate into the sinus cavity, it did "stick" into the soft tissue of my cheek and has caused some minor infection there- at the time, he said it was nothing bad and that he was glad it was not in the bone, but "only" the soft cheek/face tissue. He also said that he removed it all.
WELL- here I am, experiencing weird pressureized feelings next to my nostril, up to my sinus and that side of my upper jaw. There is no pain or swelling, and the flesh is not reddened. All my last dentist visits, I was told everything seemed to have healed fine. BUT- I am not sure- and I am going to bring it up this coming week at my dentist's. I want an xray or whatever is needed to find out if the infection has really gone.
I SO hope I will wake up and be discomfort free again soon! I have almost forgotten what that's like, and I have lost a lot of joy of life due to my ongoing issue. I can def understand how chronically ill people can get depressed- if you wake up not feeling good every day, and it stays with you ALL day, it sucks so bad
Hope we can all find our best health again! I am doing everything I can, but sometimes I think it is not enough because STILL I am not back to my old self...
