    Magnesium oil rubbed in helps alittle. I use at night, but I can definately relate!

    i had it for two weeks and now is gone. i noticed that doing a warm shower helps me to calm down my pain a bit, but for a short period of time. no painkiller seems to work in my case. i am in constant pain from April 2019, no it s a bit better, but pain every day still, i think i just got used to it. hang in there! Happy New Year!

    Yes, I have gotten this. It is associated with reflux/heartburn. Try taking an antacid and see if that helps.

    I am experiencing something similar right now. Just took a hot shower and rubbed some A535 heat rub. My pain is located on my right side. Collar bone right up the side of neck, jaw ear area. Sometimes my face feels numb. I woke up to this Saturday morning. I thought maybe i slept bad but talked to Pamela on the forum and she went through something similar. Also the left side of my face hot like fire. Yesterday it eased up and throughout the day today and now its back. Going to lie down. You are not alone. Hang in there ladies. Thank God i have you all. hugs

    Hi Kelly

    I can relate... not sure if you still suffering this but I tell you what helped me was physio... I suffered for months and tried everything but only physio and the correct stretching excercises helped... it also helped resolve my numb right thumb and right pinky... and the ache I would get down my right arm!!

    Maybe try that.
