What could cause tooth infection?
Patient: HelloI am 41 220lb good health but I have had a tooth infection for about a year now that I have been able to drain on a daily basis but recently I have been having dorado pain at the muscle connection at the elbow. Hand it is even hard to pick up a glass of water with out being in pain. Could the tooth have any effect on my arms? Doctor: Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.There is no relationship between your arm and tooth infection.Your tooth infection can be secondary to decay, Consult a oral physician and get a radiograph done to rule out the infection and get the tooth treated with RCT or extraction.I hope my answer will help you, take care.
