Hello -

Is it normal with CS .... to also start getting really shocking intense pain that feels like a \" Bolt of Lightening\" into my Jaw ?

A sudden turn of the neck one way and its gone, return the other way and its back ....

Then after a few moments its gone and its back to the persistent but constantly aching pain !

:shock: Any ideas ?

    It's normal to get pains in various parts of the upper body with CS. It all depends on which vertebrae are affected. In your case, it sounds like C3 or C4 maybe the cause of the pain in your jaw. Have you actually been diagnosed with CS?

    hello again, i forgot about the pain in the jaw, it is just under my ear and along to the middle of my jaw. i am not sure whether it is from my cs or frozen shoulder, but it is awful and the doc doesnt seem interested, what a surprise. i was told it was neuralgia, but i do believe it is symptomatic of cs. and considering that i have injuries from c2-c7 how does this fit in.
