I have pain in the right side of my face for five days now. The pain is in my jaw, it is affecting my ear, my teeth and head. I went to the dentist and had a X ray which showed nothing, my tooth is dead and i had root canal treatment a few years ago, so therefore its not toothache. She said my gums are inflamed, face slightly swollen. The pain is constant. I suffer from Nuropathic pain in my legs, so it could be a type of Nuralgia. A few months back i had a pain in my groin, no apparent cause. The dentist gave me antibiotics, i have been taking Aspirin as well and my usual dose of Pregabilin. Nothing has eased it. Does anyone else suffer from anything similar. I don't know what else to try.
