Kimmie, hi I have this often and then get a lesion behind my ear. Mine is a combination of the facial nerve which affects the jaw line, gums, teeth, face etc. Also your immune system is involved with the rsd, and lymph nodes can fill and swell.
I had to have two nerve blocks done on the myofascial nerve in my neck. that was done on the side of my neck up in Philly. It was also affecting my tongue, swelling difficulty swallowing. so the procedure has become a bit of and emergency. Dr. S knew what it was immediately- he ordered the nerve blocks up there - in Philly. It had to be done twice but then it worked and the swelling went down. I too was a fat face. Think about this block with your PM, it really helped me. Good luck. and God bless, CZ
