Avatar f tn Hello im 46yr old mail lately ive been noticing that when i smoke ur stand in one spot for a long time i get sharp pains in my back shoulder and just recently my jaw.
Avatar f tn ll stop making the crackling sound for a little bit when pressed again. Also getting pretty sharp pain by the ear and jaw area when yawning recently. If I press it torward my throat a bit, it'll hurt my throat. The doctors tell me it's mostly from smoking and stress. I also have a bit harder time swallowing saliva on that side, which the unaffected side I can feel the right side perfectly. Ever since this has been an issue , I have had a pretty sore neck as well.
Avatar f tn Does anyone else have sharp pain in their stomach when yawning or anything similar??
Avatar n tn At the very bottom of my right ribs, underneath a sharp stabbing like pain, and the right of the neck, top of shoulder kinda also recieves a sharp pain. Both sharp pains last only a minute if that. I usually walk around and just wait for it to leave. Only happens when i yawn or deep breathe and lasts not even a minute. Happens maybe once or twice if that a day. but after the pain leaves im back to feeling absolutly fine again.
Avatar n tn I have been experiencing slight numbness, more of a tingling sensation on the right tip of my tongue when i yawn or open my jaw really wide. I don't have chronic numbness or any pain. I do have occasional ear pain. My dentist took a Panoramic xray, but it turned out a bit grainy. He states he has never heard of tingling in the tongue when yawning, he thinks it is nothing. I am unsure as to where to go now. Please help me. Thanks.
1175033 tn?1492201228 I had an incident shortly after where I was trying to open my mouth to eat a cheese burger (tall homemade) when I got terrible pain in my jaw, like a dentist needle in my jaw. Since that incident, I have had pain everyday. I cant even eat right. The pain is worsening daily, yawning is extreamly painful. Swallowing has even been painful at times. I am now getting pain inside my throat, in my neck, my right side is the worst so my right ear goes muffled.
Avatar f tn Hi and welcome, I do get jaw pain on occasion, it is mostly when yawning, I get a burning sensation and my jaw locks for a minute or two. As selma said get checked for the other Chiari issues.
Avatar m tn m thinking it could be TMJ - which is a disorder of the jaw joint. It can cause many symptoms, including ear or jaw pain, as well as headaches, etc. Do you ever catch yourself clenching your jaw? Does your jaw crack or catch when you try to open it wide, such as with yawning? I would suggest starting with your family doctor - just to rule out any infection in the ear, however, if it is TMJ, the best person to treat it would be yoru dentist or oral surgeon. Best of luck!
1218873 tn?1300091216 L'Hermitte's sign? I guess that would be the case with pandiculation, not simple yawning. Pandiculation is a yawn with the "big stretch" - arms extended and back bending. I would also wonder if the pain after yawning might be metabolic. According to evolutionary biology, primates yawn when the CO2 level rises too high or the blood becomes acidic (respiratory or metabolic acidosis.) The yawn caused CO2 to be blown off and the blood pH to rise.
Avatar f tn What the heck is wrong with me? My ears hurt, especially my left one, when I first start to eat. It's as if my mouth watering brings it on, and is a sharp stinging pain. This only happens when I first start eating and then subsides. From time to time I'm experiencing a sharp, almost stabbing pain mainly in my right year that only last a few seconds. This seems to be brought on by turning my head or yawning.
Avatar f tn i am getting these sharp pains when i tried to breath in my lower rib cage. it is affecting my mobility because it spreads to my lower back. when i cough or sneeze, the pain is very acute. please help.
Avatar m tn She can open her mouth all the way like yawning, but seems not to bother her. I was wondering could this be a jaw problem. If so would it be a fracture or a dislocation?
Avatar n tn I have been experiencing a numbness sensation in me left jaw. Only when I eat, though. Something in the left side of my face swells up and when I touch it, it feels almost numb. This has been going on for more than 6 mos. But, now just last night, my jaw has started hurting. I can forget about yawning b/c the more I open it the more it hurts. I can eat but my bites have to be small. This is really wierd to me. I don't know where to go for this. Dentist, Oral DR, Ear, nose, mouth?
Avatar m tn TMJ disorders — a type of temporomandibular disorder or TMD — can cause pain in your jaw joint and in the muscles that control jaw movement and this can radiate to parts of your head. If it continues, then maybe a trip to your dentist might be of some help.
Avatar f tn I have been on Sertraline (Zoloft) for over 2 months now, for depression that's borderline bipolar, and I am still yawning and have gotten TMJ. I also keep having to take deep breaths until I can't take in any more air- not yawning-; I am clenching my jaw a lot still and having to open my mouth as wide as I can- again, not yawning- which makes me look a liiiiittle crazy! Anyone know of anything that might stop or alleviate these problems?
Avatar n tn I feel a sharp pain in the right side of my chest when taking a deep breath and when yawning
1398151 tn?1280526849 there l be weakness in the muscles involved in mastication n deviation of jaw towards the site of lesion.it is aggravated by movement of the jaw or yawning,yawning or stimulation of skin around the mouth or interruption of blood supply to the trigeminal neuron.it may be caused by compression of the nerve by some lesion around the nerve.
Avatar n tn In addition, I seem to have developed pain on left side front teeth. It is quite sharp and when I press under the jaw at that point it is very painful. Motrin is helping but i worry about the long term effects. Not sure if there is infection or something serious that is causing this continuous pain.

Avatar m tn Whenever I turn my head/neck majority of its range, I get a sharp pain around my right ear. Its sometimes hard to distinguish where the pain is. But it has been bothering me for the past 2 days, I just wondered what could be wrong.

Avatar f tn I am 29 year old female and this morning i woke up with chest pain. When i breathe in deeply, cough, and sneeze my chest hurts. I have never had this happen to me before, can someone please help me figure out what this pain is?
Avatar n tn Hold on, opening that jaw causes the pain in the back of my head to be right next to my right ear.... Could that be TMJD?
Avatar n tn I also have alot of pain and tightness in the jaws in the mornings and it takes a while for me to be able to fully open my mouth. There is pain with chewing, yawning, talking and side movements of my jaw. I have also been getting alot of pretty bad headaches, I wake up in the middle of the night at times due to headaches and usually always have one when I awaken in the mornings.
