Dentist,  's  Response
Hello,
I suggest visiting your dentist. Have you been diagnosed with any grinding or clenching of your teeth? This can cause a radiating pain and muscle soreness with inflammation. Dental infections should also be ruled out. An abscessed tooth can drain and cause radiating pain. Dental X-rays can help diagnose infections and change in the health of the root of a tooth. Left untreated, abscesses can be acute and then symptoms subside or not be consistent. Please make sure that you are up to date with dental exams and can be sure there are no dental conditions requiring treatment.
Thank you for your inquiry. I hope my suggestion is helpful.
