Muscle Cramping From Cheekbone To Jaw, Ibuprofen Helped. Swollen Bumps On Inside Of Cheeks. Any Ideas ?
one of my symptoms was crazy cheek pain. Yes, I said cheek pain. They hurt. The muscles were cramping from my cheekbone to my jaw. By that evening, it was bad. Luckily ibuprofen eased it off. Today, the aching was mostly gone, but there are swollen lines (like bumps, but long and horizontal) on the inside of my cheeks that I just realized are over veins. Any ideas what this could be?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
It seems that you have had a muscle cramp in the area causing the pain. Usually it subsides on taking a mild pain killer and a hot fomentation.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
