Painful Eye, Jaw Locks And Hurts. Is It Sinus? What Condition Is It?
Hi , i have been complaing for two years now of pain above right eye which i have had investigated by hospital eye clinic but was told there were no obvious eye problems.i have a constant clicking of the right jaw which sometimes locks and appears to affect pain in my eye.i am wondering if there is refered pain from my jaw problem to my eye or perhaps a sinus problem.in the last two months (yet again) i have been using sudefed nasel spray and steam inhilation to try to ease the sinus problem but to no effect.my Gp has said she will contact a specalist collegue and get back to me shortly as this condition has been prelevent for almost two years now. Thank you in anticipation, Joe M.
Dear Joe, It could be a referred pain from your jaw joint, if it is locking too often and your ophthalmological examinations are normal. Have they ever taken an X-ray of your jaw. And sinusitis:If you have a sinus problem it could be only exagerrating your pain but from your history it seems like the jaw is the culprit. Hope you get well soon......
