Unexplained jaw pain
Comments (8)Hi Jenn, Are you sure you don't grind your teeth? I do something weird with my mouth at night. I have my mouth closed, but yet I am pushing down real hard with the front of my mandible......which causes the TM joint to be squished for long periods of time. Maybe that's happening to you? I have fibromyalgia, and have learned that every day, there's going to be a "pain du jour"! Sometimes it hurts so bad, I'm sure it's something serious. But I've learned just to take some tylenol, and wait for it to go away, and most of the time it does. But it is important to consider what riverrat said too. I will probably die of a heart attack, because I've been through the mill with funky pains in my face, jaw, neck, arms, chest, etc., and it's never my heart! So I'll probably ignore "the big one". hahaha Also....I am learning that the mouth, especially the maxilla (the upper part of the mouth) is chocked full of tons of nerves that travel here and there....(especially the sinuses), and can give all sorts of unexplainable pains. I don't know about you, but I seem to have a mouth that will always be the center of pain for me. Good luck with this, and I hope your pain goes away soon. Try to baby it for a few days, and see if it goes away....See MorePerimenopause pains
Comments (19)Hi Rudo, hope you are doing ok. Yes, you really need to get up every now and then, even to just go to restroom and take a stretch. I work with a computer a lot and my shoulders get so tense they hurt if i forget to stretch. Once I get home I have to do a little bit of tai Chi and that helps a lot. Any slow, measured movement will do, you dont have to know Tai Chi. But on the other hand, it sounds like you have something else going on, do you use a lot of salt in your diet? Seems your body is retaining water a lot, which can be normal if you sit a lot but I see you also have elevated BP, so that could be the culprit, is BP under control?. Lay off caffeine and try herbal teas. I know you said you walk a lot but don't overdo it, take a break sometimes and do different kind of exercise, like bike (recumbent one is great for leg circulation and nice cardio, plus saves your back). Key word is moderation. :) With our messed up metabolism its very easy to overdo and I find that is never a good thing. Strenuous exercise is as easy to bring on anxiety attack as any other kind of stress so we have to find a way to mellow. :) let me know if I can help with anythign else. Have a wonderful day, hugs :)...See Moreiron deficiency and dry mouth
Comments (19)mboston - Yes, I get sores on my tongue, lips and inside my cheek. The sores on my lips look more like little red patches, never blister like. The tip of my tongue is always red and somewhat inflammed, so it makes eating very difficult and ice water is the only thing that comforts it. My doctor told me that iron deficiency anemia will inflame the tongue and because the tongue is somewhat swollen, it gets irritated from rubbing against the teeth. when this happens, the tip of my tongue will feel numb and then a few days later it will start burning. I too have stopped eating spicy foods, soft drink, wine and many of my favorite foods. It's been so frustrating. Magaritha - Mine began in May of 2009. I totally sympathize with the not being able to eat or speak when there is a flare up. This has really been a tough thing to deal with and has impacted my life. In June of this year I had a hysterectomy, so at least I won't be dealing with huge amounts of blood loss every month. That also may be why I am starting to notice a difference. My ferritin level is at 3. I just had another blood work up yesterday, so fingers crossed I see an improvement. I take chelated iron which is better absorbed. I just decreased my dosage to 125 mg because it was causing significant intestinal issues. I live in SF bay area and just recently found out that there is a Burning Mouth specialty at UCSF. I'm glad someone is starting to take notice of this disease. I sure hope we all feel better! Big hugs!...See MoreTo Paint or Not to Pain 1950's Ranch Home
Comments (93)Your next step is to get samples of the colors and paint big board of them, and look at them at different times of day and in different spots. Please don't skip this important step - colors look soooo different outdoors, and in large areas, and beside other colors, as many disappointed Houzzers have found out. Many years ago I painted my master bedroom a warm beige, but because it was contrasting with a gold carpet, the pink stood out and I had a pink bedroom. Your colors will look different against your brick than they would if they were standing alone....See Moremarciasc
