Hi. I woke up this morning with pus draining from a small hole in my upper gum line very close to my upper jaw bone/ joint . I can push on my cheek and it flows out in a thick very smelly line. I don t have any teeth on this side...just a bridge and it is anchored to my front teeth. My sinus on this side has been creating misery and when I look down my nose...my cheek clearly is extended. I have had sinus surgery in the past but it was over 15 years ago and most of this side has been removed. I was in a car accident that caused me to break every bone in my face...jaw was 14 fractures all by itself. I am now completely terrified of any problem because I just want to be normal...pain free and no more problems! Now this...should I be alarmed by this or could pus be a really bad sinus infection and draining thru my mouth is the only path it can go. Thank you for your help...if you can.
Hi, Thanks for asking he queries, As you have mentioned you have bridge on the affected side, due to poor oral hygiene and food lodgment there can be inflammation of the surrounding tissues and abscess formation. Chat Doctor.  You are also having history of sinus surgery, I would suggest you to visit to an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and get the clinical evaluation done, take an x-ray of the tooth. Get the abscess
