Face pain

[Susieliz39]

Hi all!

Just wondering if anyone has had these symptoms and if so have any clue as to what it might be.

I started with toothache in my front tooth this afternoon that then travelled along each tooth on the left side of my face. It then began on my bottom set of teeth again on The left side. That finally stopped but The pain travelled into my cheek. The whole episode lasted no longer than 5 mins.

Any ideas anyone? I’ve just been googling...... dangerous pastime I think. I’ve now got all sorts of diagnosis!

Take care all, hope everyone is doing as well as Can be at the moment.

Hi, I haven't a clue what it is but will be very keen to find out. The exact same thing happened to me on Sunday and two weeks ago. It came completely out of the blue and left about 5 to 10 minutes later

I've had this in the past and I now know that it is the onset of an attack, haven't had for a few years it seems to have changed to other things

Hello

That’s interesting 🧐 I will look out for that. Although, I’m off on half term at the moment and it seems to be that I keep going during term time and then hit the deck when I have a break. It’s a new symptom for me though, so will mention it at my next appointment.

Take care

I actually worked out that mine came at the end of a stressful time and to be honest I haven't had any since I retired

[Susieliz39 in reply to SecondLife]

Retirement is the way forward I think!

Could it be due to toothache, or grinding teeth at night? You do get a condition that causes sub mandibular pain , along the jaw line. Also jaw and teeth pain can come from an ear problem . Another reason could be trigeminal neuralgia which causes pain along the nerve tract. Maybe see a dentist firstly if it continues to bother you x

Hi

I wondered if it could be neuralgia too and you’re right, it’s better to get it checked out if it happens again.

Thanks for your reply

Take care
