The bones in my face hurt all the time. Cheek, jaw, behind my ear, under my eyes... I do not grind my teeth at night. I do not have a cold but have had a runny nose for a while now. I sometimes have to use a heat pack to be able to get to sleep at night the pain is so bad. I have had no injuries to my face, I have no bruising. Just that my bones hurt. Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thank you
