Question : Dr, just one super quick question before I have yet another major dental surgery which may be not be necessary. Aside from the burning, aching, etc with TN2, would feeling heaviness in the jaw also be a symptom or not at all? Thank u so much.

Brief Answer:
I would explain as follows.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again and thanks for your direct questions.

I have read your new question.

Heaviness in the jaw may be a symptom of TN2, and is justifiable in regards of the chronic fatigue of the muscles due to the chronic pain.

So, treating the TN2 correctly should improve the jaw heaviness too.

Hope this helps.

Feel free to ask if you have further questions.

In good health.
