A member asked:
Can sore gums cause sinus pains in the face?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, possibly: Sore gums may be a sign of an infection. If the infection is with the upper gums, the infection may sometimes spread to the sinuses leading to a sinusitis associated with sinus pains in the face.
