Thank you again for replying, it means a lot! I live in UK so will be referred on the NHS so insurance isn't an issue, I just hope they agree to refer me but clearly they can't leave me like this!!

I have seen the dentist recently and have no issues, I wish it had been something as simple as that and thanks for the suggestion!

Does anyone have the same pain and can suggest anything for relief in the meantime or any idea what is causing it?! It sometimes feels itchy too and if I pull my hair around that area it hurts too.
