Re: Intense Tooth/gum sensitivity

[Guest guest]

Yes, i have the exact same thing as you. I had my

sinus operation 10 yrs ago, and they cut out as much

infected material as possible. I had no follow up, in

the old days they used abx and radiation to clear out

any missed diseased tissue. This tissue can grow and

spread. Sometimes hyper plastic cells will appear at

the back of your throat and inside cheeks. This is

not cancer, and most doctors will not go beyond

cutting out tissue, but only when it has infiltrated

some organ, like your ears or down into your lungs.

This is very common and can effect any part of your

body, and most doctors if forced will only call it

arthritis. Treatment for this disease is retreating

to less and less, mainly because of its slow growth

and cost to treat.

Hmmm. Sorry to hear you've had this too. I'm still not quite following how it manages to make your teeth and gums hypersensitive? pennyjim davis <jimd85379@...> wrote: Yes, i have the exact same thing as you.
