“Does exercise make tooth pain worse?”
I am a 31 year old male and I have a toothache. I wonder if exercise makes tooth pain worse?

This can sometimes happen. Cardio exercise increases blood flow and if it is a toothache - the kind that has its own "heartbeat", the pressure could increase in the location of the tooth and result in increased pain.
If you exercise without raising your heart rate much, it shouldn't be as noticeable. And the toothache should be taken care of as soon as possible.
