Tooth pain- only in cold air

Tooth pain- only in cold air- why?

Hello,

Suddenly whenever I go out in the cold weather I get a dull pain under one tooth. The colder it is, the worse the pain is. For a few minutes, the pain gets sharper as I stay outside, then after about 5 minutes there is a tiny popping sensation with a barely audible popping sound. After that the tooth continues to ache, but not as sharply.

This happens every time I go outside in the cold air. The tooth is one of my two, top front teeth. It may be relevant that I recently had a month long virus with horrible sinus issues. What's going on? Will this go away on its own?

Thanks!
