Hi friends. I haven’t really started panicking about this yet because my anxiety has been good lately, but concern is creeping in.
For the last several days I’ve had the strangest sensation on the left side of my face. Every few minutes (or sometimes hours) I’ll get this sensation like something is tightening up - almost like a muscle spasm, but I don’t feel any movement or twitching. Sometimes I can feel it in my sinuses - like some sinus movement.
I have TMJ and a messed up ear on this side, so I’m assuming it’s related to this, but I’ve never had this before and it won’t stop. The day before it started I ate a bunch of chips that did irritate my jaw, so I assumed it was that. But, I’ve been resting my jaw, tried ice, heat, ibiprophen, etc. and it remains. It just comes on randomly even when I’m just sitting and not moving my jaw.
Had anyone ever had anything like this? Thanks!
