The United States is in the process of changing the citizenship and naturalization test. The goal is to make the questions reflect more closely information about the U.S. that will actually be useful for new citizens to know.
When pain is always on your mind and you donât know when it will flare up next, it becomes a contributing factor for your stress. Other symptoms associated with TMJ such as tinnitus and migraines can also disrupt your peace of mind. Incidentally, stress can also cause or exacerbate TMJ symptoms and cause you headaches. Many people clench and grind their teeth during periods of stress, which can fatigue your jaw joint or cause a bad bite to form.
It is also important to discuss what is called medication overuse headache (MOH). Many TMJ disorder patients that have headaches take medications often, and this can cause medication overuse headache. Most headachemedications can cause MOH, including acetaminophen (Tylenol), opioids (Vicodin), Triptans (Imitrex), etc. Each type of medication has itâs own criteria for how much use can cause MOH.
