What causes frequent sneezing, pain and blood clots after tooth extraction?
Patient: I had a rear upper molar extracted three days ago, during the procedure the dentist told me my root to my tooth was embedded into my sinuses, they put some type of patch in as a fill after they removed my root. Since then I have had several sneezing incidents and on top of the pain I have had lots of drainage and some blood clots . I have a follow up in 3 days but is there anything else I can be doing in the meantime? Doctor: thanks for your query, i have gone through your question, the complication during extraction that is formation of communication between oral cavity and maxillary sinus could have resulted in some inflammation of the sinus results in sneezing which in turn creates negative pressure and induces bleeding...nothing to worry it will heal in one week...consult your dentist for suture removal and review...continue antibiotics...take soft diet..avoid vigorous gargling...i hope my answer will help you..take care...
