About a week ago or more... I yawned one day and as I was closing my mouth from the yawn... the sides of my head hurt... a shooting pain near the ears/temples...
It seemed to have gotten better... but now it seems as if my teeth hurt on the left upper side... and the pain is only on the left side of my jaw/ear/temple.. My neck as also been extra tense... I do clench my teeth I think...
I also have 4 wisdom teeth... but they have been grown in for about 3 years now... I don't think it's my teeth... b/c the jaw pain happened before my teeth started hurting when I eat... (again it's only my upper teeth on the left hand side).
I'm usually in the anxiety forum b/c I suffer from anxiety... and I've been losing sleep and appetite b/c of this... should I go to a Dr. or a Dentist?
Or should I give it a little more time and see if it goes away? My mom said she had it once before and it left.
I also get kinda dizzy... and have been having dull headaches throughout the day...
Dunno if it's just anxiety/stress related or due to the possible TMJ?
Thanks!
ps: do not scare me, due to the fact that I suffer from general anxiety disorder. =)
