Re: Shooting Pain In Ear And Head
I went to my Doc today for a follow-up on my lab and I asked her about this because I had an episode during the night of sharp, stabbing pain in my right ear but it went away after 1/2 hour. She told me that with my "frustration" with this condition that I might be clenching my jaw which can cause the nerve to "shoot" these pain (obviously I cannot remember her exact words). BUT, I think she is right.
I do tend to grind my teeth during the night. She told me, to be careful and NOT to let me teeth touch in back except for chewing. I am going to try this because it makes a lot of sense. This happens most often during the night. Hope this might help!
