Do You Think This Is Tmj? Posted: 02-01-07 10:12am
I have suffered throbbing jaw pain
whenever I have a migraine for years now
and occassionally I get mild jaw pain on
its own and stuffy ears, but last night I
was chewing candy on my right hand side
when I got a sharp stabbing jaw/ear pain
and ever since it has felt strange and a
bit painful, is this common?

Yes, it very well could be. Get checked
out by your dentist or a dentist who
focuses much of his practice on treating
tmj. Be gentle to your jaw - rest it by
talking less and eating softer foods
only.
