Numb jaw

Hello folks - I posted about a painful neck a few weeks ago . Thankfully disappeared but (as so often happens) replaced by another symptom which is equally annoying . The left side of my jaw feels numb and frozen almost as though I've had an injection at the dentist which has worn off slightly . What's that all about ? Is it thyroid connected ?

AnitaApple,

It's not a typical thyroid symptoms as far as I'm aware. It maybe numb due to how you slept or due to clenching or grinding teeth. If it persists make an appointment with your dentist.
