Common Questions and Answers about Jaw pain in my ear

Avatar n tn I have pain on the right side right under my jaw joint, where my neck starts. I also have this unbearable ear pain in my right ear. It feels like it's full of pressure. Can somebody tell me what it is! I don't know how to fix it!
1446980 tn?1286838538 Yup, I get ear and jaw pain too. My jaw feels tight, my ears feel full, kinda like I'm 20 ft underwater. I get stabbing pains along my jawline and behind my ears. My mom is a dental hygienist. Her theory is that compression or inflammation is putting pressure on the 4th trigeminal nerve. I think it was 4th. Those stabbing, sharp, shooting pains are nerve pain. Pain meds won't touch them. Neurontin could help.
Avatar n tn Of course I have the jaw pain and ear pain associated with the biting down on my jaw. But I have never had muscle twitches in my neck. Anyone have any answers?
Avatar m tn But 20 minutes later I noticed when I smile or laugh (stretching my jaw in general), the pressure deep in my left ear builds up. As the pressure gets more intense, the hearing in my ear slowly fades. Are the two related and is there anything I can do to fix it?
387767 tn?1345872027 Is it possible to have arthritis in the jaw? I get pain in my jaw right near my ear, and I get pain in my ear, especially the left one. I also get a sharp pains in my head on that side. I am worried. Doctors are not really giving me an answer, and I visited several dentists to check my teeth and for TMJ. My jaw kind of clicks when I move it, but not really any pain in my mouth. Since I have arthritis in so many other joints, is it possible to have it here too?
Avatar f tn I am on amoxicillin for a sinuse infection and am experiencing jaw pain and can hardly open my mouth. It' hurts to eat and the pain is also in my ear and runs down my neck. What does this mean?
Avatar f tn For about 3 weeks now I have had severe pain in my right ear, my right side of my jaw, bad headaches, and chest pains. Nothing seems to ease the pain. I am just getting scared that it is leading to a serious issue. I am currently without medical too. Can this be something serious?
Avatar m tn Overall I would say that I rarely get sick, of anything, seldom colds, but nothing serious. This past pain episode in my ear left a tickly feeling at the jaw/ear location. no pain, but as stated before, it almost feels like a nerve issue, cause anywhere I rub my face even so gently causes that tickling feeling at the jaw/ear location. No pain, or sharp pins and needles - but I cannot help to guess that my nerve is sensitive.
Avatar n tn I am beginning to wonder if the tubes are coming out (they fall out of my ear and also push back into my ear) due to me clenching my jaw at night--I just picked up a jaw mold to help me keep from clenching. When my tubes come out, I get violently ill. Nauseated, headaches, dizzy, basically can't function. Has anyone dealt with this and does anyone know what I can do about this?
Avatar f tn t know where or how to actually place my teeth together so I can sleep without the pain, in a morning my jaw will pop in and out of place when I have breakfast or bite together too hard on an object or a food substance. I don't know what to do or who to see about the problems I've being having but I was wondering if anybody had a suggestion that I could go through with??
Avatar n tn For the past 3 weeks, I have had pain when chewing or biting down in my right ear and in that part of my jaw just below the temple. My dentist and orthodontist have said my jaw is disaligned in the past (I look normal though), but I have never had pain. My back molars do not touch when I bite, and my front teeth bite right together with no overbite at all. However, the pain has just now come and seems worse when I sleep on my face funny. Sometimes it is so bad that it is difficult to eat.
Avatar n tn I dont feel any pain until i open my jaw more than half way. My ear feels like theres a lot of fluid in it. I was thinking it might be an ear infection. But why would my jaw really hurt to open more than half way? It doesnt hurt when I chew either. Does anyone know what I might have?
Avatar f tn I was fine until the evening when I touched my right ear (towards the inside) and minced in pain. Since then I have noticed pain, pressure and partial numbness what feels like the inside of my ear, towards the middle, and about an inch around it surrounding the top of my jaw joint. I have difficulty opening my mouth too much. It hurts to move my jaw, to laugh, to chew, to talk, to smile and definitely to touch the area surrounding my inner ear and to lay down on that side.
Avatar f tn It would start on the side of my mouth, right in front of my ear and just radiate down into my lower jaw, up into my temple, into my ear, into my back teeth, even into my cheek. My jaw was clicking when I opened my mouth. The side of my face in front of the ear was tender when pressed on. Ibuprofen got rid of the pain almost immediately. At that time, there was no actual tooth pain. It felt like ALL my teeth were hurting. The pain didn't go away.
Avatar f tn I have had jaw pain for many days, only on one side, now i have ear and throat pain on the same side, and my jaw hurts so bad, like I had been punched (or so I assume) really har din the jaw. It hurts to eat, and I have pain in my ear and a sore throat.....can anyone give me advise? Bad sinuses? Time to go the Dr?
Avatar n tn I have severe pain in my jaw and it is difficult to close my mouth without tension/pain. It sends stabbing pain both in my jaw and ear at night. I also have a lump on the jaw joint near my ear!!! I has been going on since begining of september.I wake up screaming. It is like some stabbed me with a long knitting needle after held over a flame!!!!!! This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/434413'>Lump on jaw?</a>.
Avatar f tn It feels tender and sore and it is only on my right ear. The pain seems to be concentrated around my ear. I am currently in Europe for six months, without health insurance. What should I do? For years and years, I would chew on hard items, like tops of water bottles ( I know gross habit )...and I have always been known to chew gum! So I think my TMD is a direct result to me not taking care of my jaw. I also have hypothyroid and take medication every day. Please help...
Avatar n tn Hi everyone can anyone help,for the last 2 months i've had pain in top of my jaw by my ear lobe, the jaw is sometimes stiff and cracks , there is pain also in the gums around the back teeth on the same side of the jaw , the teeth feel tender the pain travels down to the troat and ear. Have no lumps or bumps around these areas. Booked to see my denist.
Avatar n tn i have this wierd noise in the back of my head abou 2inches away from my right ear but in the back of my head. everytime i walk fast, jump,run or turn my head i would hear it. what can i do?

1426391 tn?1282856586 WHen they looked in my ear with a video camera type thing my fiancee says she saw some red spots that looked like colesoars! My jaw is so stiff now an my bones in my ear hurts alot. My ear feels swollen up. I am in China, so understanding what's wrong with my ear is almost impossible. So I hope someone can help me here!
Avatar f tn What would cause my bite to shift to the right and pain at the joint of my jaw on the right? Could this change account for my having a constant eadache?
Avatar n tn That could cause the pain in the jawbone along with the pain in the ear. I have had it radiate through my jawbone down into my ear and neck and ohhh it hurts...good luck.
659608 tn?1318289366 It is however more than possible that you could have an infection in your jaw, say, from an impacted or infected wisdom tooth. Tooth pain can often make the ear and neck hurt as well (just as an ear infection can make the teeth hurt...). There is also the possibility that there is nothing wrong with you dentally either and you are suffering from neuralgic pain.
Avatar f tn After 3 days (tuesday) the whole day I was worried about my head because my veins in my head is painful like headache. If I press it it feel pain and the pain travel to other veins conected to that vein.Now I'm afraid to touch my head. I think i experience those because of the pulsing vein.Are those things I experience connected. It's hard , I can only see the big vein if I pull only pull my right face.I'm 15 yrs old , Male.
Avatar n tn About a week ago I had such a terrible "toothache" I could hardly stand it. I took two rapid release tylenol, the pain went away and I thought may be it had been caused by clenching my jaw during the day (without realizing it). Anyway, the pain came back again yeasterday with a vengence! My lower jaw on my left side has severe pain that lasts several minutes then subsides for a while. The upper jaw on the left side is also effected but isn't as severe.
