Suddenly, I started feeling an excruciating Jaw pain on the left side.
At first I thought it might be because of the erupting wisdom tooth because the cheek beside is sore too.
However,when I press both lower and upper teeth together, I do have slight discomfort but when i put pressure on them using my fingers, it's not painful.
**If this helps I had a root canal done on my lower second molar.
I have been taking diclofenac for about 4 days now, 3-4 times daily, because I start feeling unbearable pain 4 hours after taking the medicine.
Because of the pain, I cannot open my mouth completely, and if by mistake I move my jaw to the right side, IT HURTS. The left side is slightly swollen too.
I have my dentist appointment in a couple of hours. But I really want to know what is wrong with my jaw ?
Any doctors, dentists or dental students out there ??????
I REALLY NEED HELP
TIA!!
