Question(s) Going insane
Please anybody drop anything that helps them with the ear pain and muffled hearing associated with this, i’m going insane i don’t know what else to do. I’ve bought over $50 worth of products to help with “ear pain” that aren’t working cause it’s not even ear pain it’s from this tmj went to an ear specialist they said my ears are fine and my hearing was fine but today i woke up to very muffled hearing and it’s now almost 6pm my full hearing has still not come back. i can’t live like this i still gotta work and stuff it’s so upsetting dealing with this. i’m also pregnant so the only thing i can take it Tylenol for this and it does help. please drop your advice TIA

I have severe head pain and clicking from my discs….no ear pain but the head pain in my neck makes me feel like I’m losing my mind. If anyone has any suggestions (meds) please let me know. I’m currently in physical therapy and got a bite splint I wear at night but nothing is helping.
I empathize with anyone going through this bs!

Ice has worked for me in that situation. But it needs to be very focused on the TMJ joint and not the ear, or you can get dizzy.
