Does anyone else have trouble with jaw joints: aching, tired, some swelling, irritating the trigeminal nerve, and numbness in lips?

Any ideas if connected to lupus?

Hi around Christmas last yr I had it quite bad in my jaw stopped me eating for a couple of days I already take tramadol on a dayley basis so I just took paracetamol as well didn’t make much difference though ( I can’t take ibuprofen) I just had to wait for the pain to move somewhere else 😡 hope it gets better quickly

Hi Anniejo, No lip numbness but definitely pain and Achiness in my jaw quite frequently. It doesn’t seem to be related to any activity. Xo Nan
