See your surgeon: From your question its assumed you are referring to your upper wisdom teeth. It may be possible there is a communication between your sinus and oral cavity. This is a given risk in extracting maxillary posterior teeth, although it varies greatly. Treatment will vary depending on the size of communication and the how long it has persisted. See your surgeon to find out if this is the problem.

Sinus Communication: Your description sounds descriptive for an ororantral fistula, or a communication between your maxillary sinus and the wisdom tooth extraction site. At 6 weeks postop, you need to be evaluated by your surgeon to determine what course of action will be necessary to repair the communication.
