For over a long period of time i have had lots of pain in my face, at first i thought it was an ear infection because of ear pain and hearing loss. but swimmers ear, peroxide and alcohol did nothing to help my pain. plus i can pull on my ear with absolutely no pain. so then i saw i had wisdom teeth growing in, and assumed that was the reason for all my pain. I try medication but they don't help, i try to numb my growing tooth, but nothing. Curious for results, i looked online to see what it could be! I stumble upon a disorder that has many symptoms that i have, like, ear pain, hearing loss, pain around the TM, but i still have many strange things going on with me…..
1. I have sudden bursts of pain around the triangular point in the lower jaw, and above my lip…..
2. below my lips is a numbed place that will not go way, and has sudden bursts of pain as well..
I am very scared and have researched into this disorder and found several things like it can cause lockjaw, which could lead to surgery. I saw that TMJ could be caused by improper posture because certain muscles are tight.. that cant be the case because im in ROTC, and all we do is stand up straight in perfect posture.. Ive been to the dentist and he said it could be an ear infection or TMJ..but ear infection does not seem likely and TMJ seems to be the case.
SO please can anyone help me? Im only 14 and am scared and sick in tired with the pain…
