2day i had two fillings done on the right upper side , now the outside of my left nostril is swollen and painful . is this just a coincidence ?

Yes: Most likely this is a coincidence as these two areas are not located adjacent to each other.

It is a coincidence: There is no connection between the dental work you have described and the pain in your left nostril.
