Cure For Jaw And Tongue Spasms Which Is Not Occurring Frequently?

My husband is 81 years old and for the last couple of years he has had jaw and tongue spasms. Episodes last three or four days and occur about two or three times a year. The spasms are a little more severe and constant this time and he is becoming anxious. Our doctor said he could medicate, but occurrences are not that frequent. Is there anything to relieve symptoms until the episode passes?

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

I would suggest you to consult to an Oral surgeon and get a second opinion.
Avoid stress for your husband if any.
Give him multivitamin suplements.
Proper councelling and meditations can make his condition better.

Take care!
