I was diagnosed with T.M.J dysfunction early 2010 and had to have athroscopic irrigation.
My facial muscles had locked in spasm and had pulled my joint out of line.
At the same time i also developed neck and shoulder pain on the same side.I also have nerve pain in my wrist and numbness/tightness down my arm.
I have had nerve tests which were clear and have had physio.
The consultant i'm under for my jaw said there was absolutely no connection with the neck and shoulder pain.Yet i am convinced that my neck muscle triggers my facial spasms.
My face muscles are in spasm againand i cannot relax them.
I am in pain most of the time and lying on my shoulders in bed hurts, yet if i lie on my back it then hurts my neck.
I apply heat and am taking pain killers every day and i'm behaving like a bear with a sore head
Please does anyone have any ideas about what this could be?
I will be going back to G.P but wondered if anyone could suggest anything.
