The oral surgeon who did the surgery is insisting that it is not a perforation
so upset
2 ER visits for pain that is incredibly intense
fluid coming out of all my upper teeth and bottom jaw
CT showed nothing but it was not a dental CT
I see my dentist tomorrow and the Oral surgery team at dalhousie will see me tomorrow once I see my dentist in the morning.
This has been the worst experience

If the sinus is open, there is no amount of decongestant that will help. The antibiotic you are on may not be adequate for this either ..... you have to be seen clinically.
In the meantime, rinse with warm salt water 3-4 times during the day to keep the extraction site clean. Do not rinse with any mouthwash... none. You could apply moist heat to that side of your face and sinus... not dry heat, moist only and no ice. Do that every hour or so until you see the surgeon. That will help keep the blood flowing in that area which is what you want to help reduce the pressure from the inflammation (infection?).
Seriously, tomorrow without fail see the os.
Check back with us .... I know this is awful, but you'll be okay.
