Pressure/pain in nose & upper teeth

Posted by tzachi121 @tzachi121, Jul 3, 2023

In the last few years i am suffering from feeling of strong pressure inside the right side on my nose . Sometime also in the front upper teeth .
Intensifies during physical activity . After few minutes of laying down it almost disappeared.
I have also many time thick back nasal drip only on this side
Visited : ENTs , dentists , neurologists, mouth & jaw , alergy specialist . Did CT , did Fess surgery .took variuos neurological medicines , antibiotics , telfast . Nobody know what it is .
I can point to an area inside my noise that seems to be the focus of the pressure .
Any idea ?

,

Some believe it is all related to sinus issues. I certainly believe it is all related in some way, shape or form. My nose is very dry, seems swollen, but not snotty and makes breathing difficult. Then it will spontaneously clear and I can breathe again.
Have seen all kinds of doctors. (6 ENTs). Nobody has a clue.

waterspritehi, Thank you so much for so many suggestions to try. I have considered colloidal silver. I have to try one thing at a time....sensitive Nellie that I am! I am going into my 9th week of getting over asthmatic bronchitis, pneumonia & sinus infection. This humidity this summer has been the hardest summer of my life with asthma. I personally believe due to my sensitivity to allergens that the fires across our land with the debris got all of this started and the humidity escalated it. I use alkalol and it is wonderful....it can be too drying so I don't use it all the time. I have been on a nebulizer for 3 weeks with Albuterol 2.5 mg and it is helping greatly. I am trying to boot up my immune system which helps with sinus issues & allergies. Someone told me about Jade Leaf Organic Matcha Tea (it's on Amazon and is about $10). I add 1/2 teaspoon to my morning protein shake. I am also irrigating my sinuses daily with NeilMed sinus rinse....that is helping. The netti pot backs up in my eustachian tubes and this one doesn't. I also added Quercetin Phytosome by Thorne daily. Please check with your doctor before trying any of these. One thing at a time.....One day at a time. God Bless you and thank you for your valuable input.

When it comes to supplements and complementary medicine, I always refer to NIH's National Center for Complementary and Integrative Medicine to better understand the proven evidence. See this information:

– Colloidal Silver https://nccih.nih.gov/health/silver

The first section of the page states: What’s the Bottom Line?
How much do we know about colloidal silver?
There are no high quality studies on the health effects of taking colloidal silver, but we do have good evidence of its dangers.

What do we know about the effectiveness of colloidal silver?
Claims made about the health benefits of taking colloidal silver aren’t backed up by studies.

What do we know about the safety of colloidal silver?
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has said that colloidal silver isn’t safe or effective for treating any disease or condition.

According to Dr. Brent Bauer from Mayo Clinic says "Colloidal silver isn't considered safe or effective for any of the health claims manufacturers make. Silver has no known purpose in the body. Nor is it an essential mineral, as some sellers of silver products claim."

Yes, I had Covid. I felt recovered and these symptoms started about six weeks later. Pretty classic for long Covid I believe.

Hi @dloos. I havnt gone back for your journey so hopefully not repeating or frustrating with following 🙃 After consult with ENT head surgeon, for year and half of indescribable front of head/face pressure/pain causing random difficulty breathing with no other obvious sinus issues, found varying inflammation likely cause. This led me to track detailed daily activity and food for triggers of increased inflammation. Don't get discouraged by low inflammation food lists or activity restriction as you’ll find many sources here and other reputable sites for beneficial pacing and food alternatives. Best of healing to you🌈
