Every now and again I run into a jaw bone issue. its like someone shocked me really hard in the side of the head. My gums become raw, irritated, and feel like the roots of my teeth are exposed or that I have food stuck against the nerve roots. its not super painful, but is worrysome painful. It usually appears during times of great stress, and takes a couple of days to go away.
I dont believe mine is TN, I think its MS being its same old nasty self. True TN is extremely painful and leaves folks wanting to claw their faces off, or standing still in fear that a breeze will touch the skin on their face.
I hope you feel better Erin.
