What Causes Dizziness Along With Headache And Jaw Pain?
i was playing basketball, when all of a sudden i got hit on the side of my head by an elbow. i came out of the game and felt a little dizzy. but once i got home i started to get a headache and my jaw hurt and wouldn t shut all the way. any idea of what could be wrong?
Hi, From history it seems that dizziness might be due to hard blow on the side of head. As you got difficulty in opening or shut down movement at jaw joint there is possibility of having sub laxation of T M joint. Consult oral surgeon and get examined. Meanwhile do not try to wide open your mouth or keep fingers on TM joint while yawning. Ok and take care.
