I had been having severe pain in my upper right wisdom tooth and 2nd molar area with infection and got those teeth pulled. I went for post op last week and was still having pain. It is hard to describe, but I will get pain "attacks", where the pain radiates from the area where those teeth were, into my ear, behind my eye, and in my sinus and will eventually calm down to more of an annoying throbbing. Dentist did another xray and could see that I have a sinus infection, and the tooth hole where the wisdom tooth was still draining pus. He also noticed some abnormal growth of bone that is very close to my sinus wall. Have been on antibiotics for the last week, and I still have pain though it is to a lesser degree. Went back today and next week he wants to do another surgery to remove the abnormal piece of bone and "clean out" my sinuses, which I assume means removing the infection. Is that a thing? What is this procedure called and would this be better to have an ent look at me? My fear is that I will pay all this money to get the bone removed and sinus cleaned out and will still be having this pain. He hasn't really answered whether it will solve the pain issue, just keeps saying I have a sinus infection and that there was a lot of infection where the teeth were. But I've been on antibiotics since last Monday, shouldn't the sinus infection have cleared up by now?
