Common Questions and Answers about Jaw pain from sinus pressure

jaw-pain

Avatar f tn My symptoms are primarily on my right side only and I had a lot of ear pain and neck pain too. Most of my post nasal drip, pressure in my frontal sinuses have reduced, however I still have a strange lingering pressure in my head. Some days it's worse than others, and it's only one my right side. When I lay down at night it hurts behind my ear and wraps around to the back of my head (but still only on one side). I can't lay on that side at all, every single night.
Avatar f tn This is day 3 of suffering really bad sinus pain in the left side of my face I've tried sudafed,panadol,saline nasal spray,Vicks inhaler,steam from hot showers,controlled breathing and now I'm at a loss as to what else to try,I'm flying in 3 days and don't want to be suffering the way I am and have cabin pressure too. The pain is so bad I'm struggling to eat (pressure affecting my jaw) and sleep (due to having to blow my nose so frequently) I'm 35 weeks today.
Avatar f tn I have been have episodes of left chest pain and jaw pain for about 2 months. I have had a stress echo which was normal. I had a cardiac ct with calcium scoring in which my calcium score was 0 and my arteries were clear ( they couldn't see my right coronary artery completely but they assured me it wasn't my heart). I have been on Nexium for my stomach and have been referred to a GI doctor but I continue to have this pain and jaw tightness.
Avatar f tn Could i have a sinus infection with no pressure no previous head cold but i just have a constant toothache on my right upper jaw. i had a cat scan done said chronic mucoperiosteal thickening in the right maxilary sinus with a small amount of fluid. I see an ENT tommorrow but i want relief from this tooth ache very soon. should i go to him or another endodontist?
Avatar f tn There are many cases where individuals that suffering from sinus congestion also experience pressure in the ear, with earaches and even jaw pain. The earaches you are having may be an infection in the ear due to blocked sinuses. Other causes of aw pain can be due to infection of salivary gland like parotitis, infected foci, osteoporosis related jaw disarticulation or fracture.
Avatar n tn It started as sinus headaches 2 months ago, then it turned into pressure all over my face and an earache with jaw pain. That was 3 weeks ago. Now it is jaw pain, dizziness, and sinus pressure. My ENT had a CT done and said my sinuses are basically clear but I have 2 small polyps in a cavity and teeth growing in y nasal cavity?...Apparently this is normal? But now I am severely depressed and anxious too. He seems to think all of this stemed from stress so he gave me valium.
146298 tn?1258712247 They go from my eye to my jaw and specific points of pain are jaw, base of skull, top of skull, behind ear, where shoulder meets neck. When I have such a headache I am very dizzy, technically it's vertigo. After the ache has begun my nostril slowly closes itself and adds a bit to the pressure, but I've had sinus headaches and this is different. Something in my head seems to be swelling and blocking the nasal passage rather than the nasal passage being blocked and causing the pain.
1147984 tn?1261626788 I am having all of these symptoms - started with the neck pain, then the eye pain, then severe migraine headaches, and now I have jaw pain. My husband thinks I am a hypocondriac! And the migraine pain I swear started in my thigh one night showed up in the side of my chest the next night and then the back of my head!
Avatar m tn For the first day, the pain radiated to the left jaw, and for a while seemed to originate from the jaw. Today the pain and pressure is better, but is now radiating to a slight soreness in the left collarbone area. I've also noticed that the pressure sometimes moves up toward the sinuses. I can also feel the pressure slightly in my throat. I have been experiencing some sinus pressure, along with a slightly stuffy nose and post-nasal drip.
587537 tn?1220104892 thats when the extreem pain started and swelling of both upper and lower gums. I do clinch my teeth, jaw pops/cracks more as I get older. So I was sent to a oral surgen to get the moler pulled, took exrays and he said No way; your sinus are swelling. Went to medical Dr. got that 5 day medican, a week later took extrays again and still tells me sinus infection. My nose fells clear, my ears do hurt and my jaw aches, along with swollen gums, only on right side.
Avatar n tn Ouch! From your symptoms (sinus pain and low-grade fever) I would have assumed that you have a moderate sinus/ear infection. Maybe you do, but your doctors are just too hesitant to prescribe antibiotics. I had similar symptoms a few weeks ago (1 degree fever, sinus headaches, always feeling warm, tired, previous sore throat, only slight sinus drip) and they prescribed antibiotics and it went away eventually.
Avatar f tn I had to have an ENT to suction out my ear canal due to fungus growing in it. She prescribed some ear drops & I have noticed since taking them for 1 1/2 days that my right bottom jaw feels like it is in a vice lock tool & is swollen & hurts really bad. My right side of my sinus hurt & have pressure & I have severe dry nose. Please help me. Do I stop taking the drops? What can I do for the sinus pressure & dry nose?
Avatar f tn I have pressure in mine too, for about a year. Found out that my medicaiton was causing it. However, I found otc ear drops help with the pain.
Avatar n tn I went to the ENT doctor, took medication for 6 weeks, but did not help, so I had a sinus surgery, + the doctor took all the screws and plate out from the left jaw, because he said one of them was sticking in the sinus, that was caused the pain. That happened in October, but last month, I started to feel a hard "ball" in my left face (sinus?). I can feel it from outside of my face, and inside the gums are swollen. Some days are really bad, swollen from outside too.
Avatar f tn d been having terrible tooth pain and had developed an abscess on the gum above that tooth. At the same time, I was experiencing a pressure/pulling sensation down my jaw, around my ear and down my neck. I was first given a round of antibiotics, and the pain, abscess and pressure/pulling sensation all went away.
Avatar f tn OR IT COULD BE ALLERGIES TOO. INNER EAR WILL HURT IN UR JAW AND AROUND UR EARS W/ PRESSURE-I KNOW FROM MY 1ST HAND EXPERIENCE-ASK UR MD OR PRACTIONER.
Avatar n tn Also, you might go to a dentist specializing in TMJ disorders or a maxillofacial specialist, because a problem with the jaw is strongly suspect with headache on the side with jaw pain. Do you clench or grind your teeth when you sleep? I'm a clencher myself and I have both joints with arthritis and joint disc dislocations, with one of them out of place even when I open my mouth (called without reduction, I believe).
Avatar f tn If it is nerve pain, you should see either an oral facial pain specialist or a neurologist. I personally would recommend an oral facial pain specialist as they deal with that in particular. But either one is good.
Avatar f tn Non allergic factors such as Vasomotor rhinitis can also cause chronic sinus problems. Abnormally narrow sinus passages, which can impede drainage from the sinus cavities, can also be a factor. Symptoms include: Nasal congestion; facial pain; headache; fever; general malaise; thick green or yellow discharge; blurred vision, feeling of facial 'fullness' worsening on bending over; aching teeth.
Avatar m tn I have a pain and discomfort in my jaw for months now, pressure in my palate and behind my nose, my right side teeth aches when I bite something like meat, and itches when opening my jaw wide. My ear also aches, like pressure in my ears that itches too, I get headaches and makes me feel like I cant think. I had jaw and teeth pain last year and the year after, had xrays on the gums and teeth and dentist couldn't find anything.
Avatar m tn My wisdom teeth are still intact, but 3 dentists and 2 oral surgeons have assured me that they do not need to come out and would not be causing the pain. The pain is like a sharp pressure in that area of my mouth. Almost feels like a sinus infection in that palate/gum region. When I press on my second molar, it tends to alleviate the pain momentarily, but it comes back. At times the pain is throbbing, other times it is almost non-existent. Sinus x-rays have ruled out sinusitis.
Avatar f tn I may have two complete issues here--one from the cold and the other due to this jaw misalignment. I am 72 years old, live in FL and the cold symptoms on the head have gotten worse because AC is needed here in all the buildings. All of my registers are pointed away from my chair or bed. When I was young, they tell me I had cotura of the head whatever that is. I was extremely sick from spending hours in a drafty situation.
Avatar f tn My symptoms are primarily on my right side only and I had a lot of ear pain and neck pain too. Most of my post nasal drip, pressure in my frontal sinuses have reduced, however I still have a strange lingering pressure in my head. Some days it's worse than others, and it's only one my right side. When I lay down at night it hurts behind my ear and wraps around to the back of my head (but still only on one side).
