Eye pain and tooth caries

Hello,
Two weeks I had pain in left side of my head. I could barely realize left side and right side of my brain. At the same time when I was looking to left side I had pain in muscles (?) underneath of my left eye. When I look at left side the due to tension I feel pain underneath of my left eye. I had a painful headache in left side of my head first week but during second week the pain was also in right side of my head.
A medical doctor I was with, saw inside my ear was also red. She tld my middle ear is red.
I was with a dentist who told my gum has is highly inflammated and one of my teeth has caries.
She told it has to be basically cleaned. Since I was not sure about what she told, I visited
second dentist who told me everything is right and I have no inflammation in mouth, just there
is a caries that needs to be treated. Both of them told there is unlikely that your headache is from your tooth.
What I feel is that my tooth is source of this pain.
Can some one please inform me about what should I do more?

Why are these people not giving you antibiotics?  Isn't that what they do when your inner ear is red and you are in pain?  Do you have a fever?

Did you get a dental cleaning?  Did they look at xrays for TMJ?
