I mean will it go away. Have you seen this before?
Doctor he said bony abnormality . Cornoid process, hypertrophy vertical madibal.
He said its not serious. what do you think doctor.
I think that its a joint or muscle problem. I hope that its nothing serious and that it turns out some home care and some anti-inflammatory medication will do it.
My bite isn't off. but I am Hoping its nothing serious. I have an appointment tomorrow with a oral surgeon. Hopefully a panoramic x-ray will help. I will keep you updated.
Is your bite off? If your bite feels off (as in the teeth line up weirdly), it could indicate a dislocated jaw or a fractured jaw since it'd have to be quite a bit of damage to mess up your alignment of teeth. If your bite feels pretty normal overall but it hurts, it may just be an injury to the joint which would require a softer diet, some stretching exercises, pain/anti-inflammatory medication, rest, etc.
It hurts when i eat on that side. It feels like inflammation, feels like a dislocation, or fracture of some sort. It only hurts when there is pressure on the "knot" part. But Doctor, What do you think I can do to reduce this feeling that's been with me since March.
It does seem to be a joint area most likely.
It hurts a lot when I shift my Jaw to a downward position to the left. Putting pressure on that area it seems.
