Can a chronically blocked eustachian tube cause a cyst?
Patient: It turns out I had a huge infection beneath a crown in one of my molars.  I just had the ccrown and tooh removed today.  There was a 6 mm cyst on one root.  In the meantime, I have had a chronically blocked right eustachian tube (same side as the bad tooth).  Could there be any link? Doctor: Hello:)Welcome to HCM.Yes,infection and pain can be radiated towards the ear.You got the tooth removed and the infection source is removed.You must have a full course of antibiotics prescribed by your dentist.Also,consult your physician regarding this.Ask your dentist if the removed tooth can be replaced for a better chewing ability.Regards.
