Hey I just want to start by saying I haven't been to the dentist in about 15 years! Yes I know not so smart. Anyhow every morning when I wake up I have blood in my mouth from my gums bleeding overnight apparently. Anyway at the back of my mouth a tooth is half rotten and when I press around the gum of it a little white pus comes out at times it seems. But what I am wondering is this tooth what's causing me to have allergy problems? I sneeze daily now, I have really bad headaches, very tired at times I get chest colds often. And sometimes I get a little dizzy. I'm certain I have gingivitis cause my gums bleed so easily. And also my neck is stiff from time to time, also my lymph nodes seem to swell a little in my neck. Is all this likely that its symptoms from my teeth?

Seriously bad teeth can even cause life threatening illness. Yes headaches, sinus infections, and worst are all possible.
Any reason for such a neglet of your health.

Can a bad tooth make you feel sinus problems all the time? I'm sleepy a lot and I have bad headaches on occasion as well and I seem to get a chest cold often! My gums however do bleed if I touch them. When I wake up in the am there's old brown blood in my mouth where they have bleed overnight. Just want to know some opinions and what I should do next? I have no insurance and to add to the list of symptoms I get dizzy on occasion. And around the bad tooth I can press around the gum line and a small amount of puss comes out. Thanks for replys

In a word, yes. If you have an abcess, an infection, it can drag your health down.
You need to see a Dentist. Check for dental schools in your area if you have no insurance.

Ok I was just making sure my symptoms lined up with a dental issue! Tired of feeling rundown and sick all the time I figured all this out when allergy meds wasn't working at all!

It's all true - I had an infection under a crown that couldn't be seen, no pus came out, but I was very, very sick with bronchitis for all the many months it took before I saw a periodontist, despite taking more and more new and expensive antibiotics!
I wish more doctors saw the connection to teeth. They DON'T.
