Default What is the best test to determine if you

have osteomyelitis after an extraction (going on two months). Also, what type of doctor is the best to see for this. Let's say you had a tooth extracted three hours away and your nearby dentist is acting weird and hands off with you and you need to see someone nearby.

I had a molar near my maxillary sinus removed and all heck broke loose. I still have burning pain in nose/cheek, and have seen two ENTs and there is nothing wrong with my sinus. Really want to find out if there is an infection hiding in there. Don't have a fever, just have pressure in the palate, slight swelling that comes and goes, and a weird burning/pulling feeling in my sinus, or that area. It's so bad today that I want to lay down, take Naproxen, and sleep. It's so frustrating. I've had an MRI and nothing showed aside from sphenoid thickening, I've had a CT scan a month ago, and nothing showed but I am not happy with this pain and want to avoid any unnecessary problems in the future. I cannot tolerate this level of discomfort for an extended period of time.


Thank you.
