hello, i have had a pain in my jaw/left side, feels like a contraction black and blue or something, i have been under wicked stress, and everytime something stressful happens  the pain gets worse, but today was a stress free day and my jaw is killing me, i have had lyme disease 6 times, my face was paralyzed with that jaw/nerve in massive pain 12 years ago, but this just started out of the blue about 2 wks ago, im hoping its stress, like i said major stress  should i go to the er  or wait for my doc apt on monday ?
Hi, Thanks for posting the query, Pain in the jaw could be due to infection. I would suggest you to consult to an Oral Surgeon and get a checkup done. Take painkillers for temporary relief. Take multivitamin supplements. At home take lukewarm saline rinses for soothing effect. Take care!
