Could nausea, rib pain, facial pain and nasal congestion be related to allergies?
Patient: 55 y/o female.  Approx 6 months ago thought I was biting right cheek, and the dentist thought that was what it looked like.   The dentist has a watch on a lower tooth on the right side that may need a new filling.  Noticed right nasal congestion off and on.  I have a history of allergies and get allergy injections.   Past week started having a lot of increased saliva, facial pain and can feel the muscle or bump in front of ear.  Not seeing any noticeable facial swelling.  Also I've been having nausea, and some occasional right upper pain below the ribs.  My right side of my face and neck is a little sore. Doctor: HelloWelcome in H.C.M.I have gone through your query regarding recurrent nasal discharge and obstruction with soreness over right half of face and upper chest.
