Ive been experiencing on and off again jaw pain on the left side back base of jaw, it seems to come and go. I do get press in my upper cheekbone sort of like sinus pressure, and right now it could be. Im 28 years old male and within the last year I have had a cardiovascular exam with stress test/ekg/echo so I figure most likely scenario is that its TMJ, just attempting to reassure myself.
Hello, thank you for consulting with Chat Doctor. Jaw pain can be because of many reasons like-first may be one of your lower tooth is infected of left side which is causing this-second may he your salivary gland of left is having stone which is causing this problem-third may be your TMJ only is causing this-fourth can be your jaw bone is only infected. But to confirm all these you have to visit a dentist and get a full mouth x-ray done which will rule out the problem. Hope it will help you.
