All day long, I've had this intermittant pain at the back point of my jaw on the right. It hurts to press on it (and the left side doesn't). It's kind of like a nerve thing. Sometimes it's stronger, sometimes it's weaker. Sometimes it's really quick, sometimes it lasts like half a second.

It happens when my mouth is completely closed, mostly closed, or wide open. It doesn't seem to make any difference.

It's odd. Has anyone every experienced this, and if so, do you know what it is?

Do you grind your teeth?
Could it be TMJ? That is what I have. It sucks. It makes me get-
Shooting head pains
migraines
sore jaw
sore neck
crackling jaw

I don't, but only because I sleep with a mouthguard. When I don't, I clench.

I think I get something like that intermittently. It comes and goes. Sometimes it happens when I'm laughing and eating, or when I'm in a crazy fun social situation and theres a lotta smiling back-and-forth.

It usually goes away...However, it never hurt to press on it, it's usually a wave of pain.
