jaw-pain

Avatar n tn I am having diffculties opening my mouth because of the pain and soreness. What I need to know is this normal to have pain in the jaw area after a wisdom tooth extraction? And if so, how long should I expect to experience this pain?
Avatar m tn For the last two weeks it is still there, but feels like a sudden pulse of pain in the right side of my neck, sometimes just below the right side of my jaw. It also happens to the left side of my neck as well. I have twisted my neck many times in the past and I am quite familiar with that kind of pain, this is definitely not that, it feels more like the dull ache you get a few days after having a tooth pulled.
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 Sometimes it is so bad that it is difficult to eat. When I grab the left side of my jaw and slide it right, the right side/TMJ hurts in the same way as it does when i bite down. Pushing the jaw the other way produces no pain. I am concerned because I also have a funny "feeling" in my right ear that has accompanied this jaw pain. My ear canal feels "cool" and like there is liquid or wax in it, but when I put my finger in it, there is nothing.
Avatar f tn I have been wearing bite guard for last year and it got better but started hurting again this week really bad and having spasms in jaw and now my neck is killing me on the left side. Pain is going up the left side of neck and down left shoulder into arm. Have not had chance to go to doctor yet but am wondering if anyone with cervical disc problems has ever had it to affect temple and jaw area of face??? Am thinking maybe this isn't TMJ at all....
Avatar m tn For the last 3-4 weeks I have had an ache in the lower jaw area. Mostly on the left side but sometimes on the right also. It's worse when I open my mouth and it's more of a dull ache then a sudden, sharp ache. Swelling sometimes accompanies the ache also. Nothing that I can note was done to set it off. Never had it before. Don't grind teeth or chew gum or anything like that.
Avatar m tn I weigh 230 pounds. I even get pins and needles in my left hand, and jaw and neck pain on the upper left side near my jaw. Maybe its all muscular?? It would be nice if this is not my heart, as i worry ALOT.
Avatar f tn Since July 2013 I have noticed swelling on the left side of my face. It is there every day but sometimes it is far worse. It is always swollen just along the top of my jaw/bottom of my cheek. I had thyroid cancer 5 years ago and had a complete thyroidectomy. 14 lymph nodes were removed and 3 had cancer. I was on levoxyl but was switched to synthroid when levoxyl was no longer available. I noticed the swelling around the time of the med change. My thyroid Dr. says there is no relation.
Avatar m tn its not that type of pain and its been off and on for a few monts the pain is sharp and radiates down jaw line a bit
Avatar m tn The pain is always the same. It is left sided chest pain radiating into my neck and lower jaw. I have been to the doctor and my local ED and have had ecgs and blood tests performed but it comes back normal except for a T-inversion in the V1 & V2 leads (been told it could just be a normal thing for me).
Avatar n tn All of a sudden I have a severe pain on my left side under my rib cage. I know I don't have gas, what could the problem be. Could it be my appendix??
1947337 tn?1331423890 Like a really bad toothache but the pain is on the whole left side of my jaw, top and bottom. This has happened 2 or 3 times in the past week and will last several hours along with pain going down my neck and behind my ear.
Avatar m tn I know my TMJ disorder causes problems with migraines, ear problems, as well as neck pain. This is also central to the left side of my head. I know my jaw is slightly uneven and my left side hangs a bit lower than the right, this probably causes strain and pain. I would see a dentist to check it out for you.
Avatar f tn I'm a 34 year old woman (and a smoker, I know it's bad and I am trying to quit) and there's a history of heart disease in my family (my maternal grandmother had her first heart attack at age 28). About 5 days ago I started getting alot of heartburn, 2 days after the heartburn I started experiencing a sudden severe throbbing pain in my left jaw. It wasn't tooth pain and it was deep, not surface pain.
Avatar n tn As long as i can remember i have had pain in the left side of my chest and get a cramp in the left side of my jaw. What is this and what type of doctor should i see, is it serious?

Avatar f tn i am 49 and i have jaw pain and left arm pain i went to the dentist and to my md he told me he did not no
Avatar m tn I noticed everytime I took off my glasses, I there was a slight pain in the left ear, only the left, though the right was feeling pain as well, but the left was bad, all of a sudden one day this sharp pin and needle pain just started while i was wearing the glasses. I changed my glasses like a year later and this time it was light, but I would say every 2 months or so this pain returns ever since then. I told my doctor this, but could not see an immediate issue.
Avatar f tn I am 21 years old. I am not particularly active, meaning I do not exercise regularly, but I am not out of shape. My joints crack constantly in the following areas: back, wrists, ankles, toes, fingers, knuckles, shoulders, elbows, knees, hips. They do this on command as well as randomly throughout the day. I'm most concerned with my hips and shoulders. There is no pain. It is very loud and a little embarrassing at times. Is it harmful, since I am so young?

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 n tn I woke up yesterday with horrendous jaw pain (mostly left side). Has anyone experience this? Any suggestions on how to relieve the pain? Or what may be causing it?
Avatar n tn 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. Sometimes there is stabbing pain to my ear. The pain is bad enough to wake me up at night. It almost feels like a "charly horse" in my jaw. I use a splint at night. I do have an implant in my lower jaw on that side and see a dentist regularly.
