I suffer with pain on the left side of my face in the form of tingling feeling in the lip, gum, tongue, nostril and eye. Have been on amitriptlyne for a while and then on gabapentine and pregabalin but the last two gave me awful side effects so have come off them and just taking painkillers at the moment, but they don't do much at all. Has anyone tried a Tens Machine?

View 1 RepliesAbout a week and a half ago I woke up to my left eye completely swollen shut. Doctor gave me antihistamine and antibiotic to cover allergic reaction and infection. Swelling significantly went down but never 100%. Eyelid still throbbing on occasion and throbbing to side of eye and in corner. Swelling has moved to side of face and under chin. Had cat scan and ultrasound and nothing abnormal but everyone notices the swelling except my doctor down plays it. Something is going and I'm super frustrated with what it could be.
View 1 RepliesFor the past couple months I have a sharp pain that comes and goes throughout the day. I live off Motrin just to keep myself sane. I get intense jabs in my jaw, ear, eye area and sometimes my head. Does this sound like TN? I don't really have a trigger or anything. Sometimes the pain is so awful I have to hide under a blanket and just try to take a nap til it passes. Other times (like now) the pain is dull but the jabs are still painful. Anyone experience this?
View 7 RepliesI was taking a pre workout called mp assault to go lift weights. Then I got strange eye twitching/feeling numb+light sensitivity and dizziness. Now 3/4 days later twitching stopped but more and more of my face is numb and eye doesn't feel right. What is happening?

Since yesterday I've experienced paraesthesia/numbness on the left side of my face.
It starts from just before the eye and to the chin including the left side of my tongue.
A few hours after it started when I saw that this feeling is consistent I went to the ER (it was night so I didn't have many choices).
They did several blood tests, urine test and chest and back X-ray - all came out OK.
They also checked heart-rate and blood pressure and of course they're fine.
I had the same paraesthesia in left side of the face a month ago and it passed within a few hours - the doctor told me then to come back for a checkup if it happens again but didn't refer me to a specialist.
Now they referred me to a neurologist and a nose-ear-throat doctor but I have an appointment for 2-3 months from now.
The last doctor I saw was convened it's an anxiety disorder (which I have for about 15 years) - but it doesn't seem likely to me (although possible).
I also got estimations that it might be a virus or an ear/jaw infection.
Do you have any way to help me understand what i might have and what test should I do (and insist on) and generally, how worried should I be?
Yesterday after showering I laid down for bed and I got this itchy burning sensation on the left side of my face...I thought to myself it was just dry skin...I woke up the next day with no issue...it was about 34 degrees outside today and wind was gusty...but I maybe spent 45 mins outside on and off...maybe 5-10 mins at a time at best...I noticed throughout my day the burning sensation was getting worse...I came home from work and showered once again and it feels like it made it worse...I am having trouble chewing on that side of my mouth, but only because of moving my mouth to chew...I never had my wisdom teeth pulled and I'm 29 years of age...my teeth and gums themselves do not ache or hurt at all...I just had gotten over a head cold, but i always have them through the winter months...This is the 1st time this had ever happened to me...My skin does dry out in the winter time, but i've never had this feeling before...should i be worried and seek medical help? It almost feels like sunburn and it hurts to the touch...the right side of my face is completely normal...the reason this scares me is if i have a infection in my gums/tooth somewhere i heard this can be deadly if not treated...

View 1 RepliesI was wondering if anyone as similar problems to me. I have had alot of cramping pain on my left side towards the spine I have seen a gp about it and says it's musculoskeletal. A few days ago I woke up with the opposite side in agony and I phone the docs but they just said it is muscle spasm. I find it quite strange that the pain from my left seems to of gone and now it's top right of my back. Also how long does a spasm take to go thanks tracy
View 6 Replieschest pain ... more on the left side - under breast. sometimes, and the middle. Pain is sometimes sharp, sometimes just like pressure. hardly other symptoms. This has been on and off for a while ... (8 months or more)

I'm female, 30, asian, 1.58cm, 48kg. Not exercising. Slightly depressed. History of panic attack.
I am 20 year old male. Not sexually active. OK for 4 hours now I have been experiencing a weird dull ache/pain/discomfort on the left side of my left testicle, and also slight discomfort in lower abdomen. The discomfort on the testicles is ONLY on the left side of my left testicle.
For the past hour I have been going crazy looking over all the possible problems that might be. However all these problems seem to have some kind of physical symptom. I checked my balls and I couldn't find anything wrong on the outside.
I'm 34 weeks and I woke the other morning to the left side of my face paralyzed. I can't move that side of my mouth or close my eye at all and it's starting to droop as well. Doctor said it's called Bell's Palsy and it usually goes away after days, weeks, or even months. There might also be a risk that it could be permanent due to nerve damage.

After talking to an aunt found out she has meniere's-disease so we are going to a ent next.
Question: Does angina happen during extreme exercise to a healthy man without any heart disease/plaque build-up
Background: While running when i am extremely tired and exhausted(after running for long time) i feel pain in chest which is sometimes at left or mostly at right side of the chest. the pain goes away as soon as i stop running and doesn't return even if i start running after resting a few minutes. I can't say that it is heart pain as it is mostly at right side of the chest.
.
note: The pain does NOT spread to other areas and i am just 16 years old with a healthy weight, active life style and i don't smoke/drink; it all makes any heart disease very unlikely.

View 2 RepliesWhat are the signs and symptoms? Ive had left side throat pain that is radiating into my ear. I also have swollen nodes under my chin and neck that hurt pretty bad when pressed. I am not fighting a cold or anything the throat pain just came out of the blue a week ago and hurts when I swallow.
View 1 RepliesFor the last month or so. I have been experiencing some very extreme pain in my chest. That travels basically all over the left upper side of my body. It virtually takes my breath away. It hurts worse whenever I go to get up or lay down. Or when I lean my head over to the left.
View 2 RepliesFor about 6 weeks I've had stomach irritation, intermittent pain in left and right side with tenderness under the ribs, headaches, lower and upper abdomen pain, bloating, belching, an intermittent sharp pain like an electric shock at the top and just to the right of my abdomen, and most recently floating stools.
To be honest the pain isn't unbearable, just irritating, very uncomfortable and persistent which is getting me down. I wake every day with the same series of pains and bothersome bloating and burning. I've been on omeprazole for about four weeks which doesn't seem to have sorted it.
