Hi, This is Alshamget Yifru. I have a serious pain on my jaw for the past two years. I tried to contact a dentist and many times to find a solution. But, though many trials were made none of them gave me relief apart loosing my teeth. I suspect that the pain is caused by other complication and I am scared of it. So I need your assistance badly. For your information I have a high blood pressure and a history of kidney stone. Looking forward for your answer.
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe pain on jaw. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like bruise, TML problem like ankyloses and TML disc problem, heart problem like angina, malocclusion and cervical spondylosis. I would suggest you to consult oral surgeon for proper examination. Doctor may order CT scan or MRI OT TMJ to confirm the diagnosis. Doctor may also check the occlusion. Doctor may give night guard, refer you to orthodontics for correction of occlusion or recommend surgery for TMJ problem. Doctor may also recommend physical therapy along with stretching exercises . For now eat soft food, apply warm compresses to TMJ and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
