In regard to cervicogenic headaches, in which areas of the head/face does the pain usually occur? can it be related to or coincide w/tmj symptoms?

Variable: These problems are headache triggers for mostly muscle contraction headaches. The neck issues probably cause pain over the back of head, and TMJ over the temple. If you have both, need to treat both, directly. Physical therapy or a dentist who specializes in TMJ could be very successful.

Cervicogenic pain: Pain can be in different locations ranging from temples, frontal or behind eyes; there isnt a set and defined pattern. You could also have referred pain from the jaw muscles. You can try applying ice over the neck and the mouth (where it hurts) for a couple of minutes; can also try Acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Consult an orofacial pain dentist if it has been going on for a while.

Forehead: The most common area of pain with cervicogenic headache is around or behind the eyes. Also, patients will frequently report forehead pain as well as pain at the base of the skull on the affected side.

Absolutely: Tmj is a descending structural problem that can extend down the body. Most TMJ pts have cervical instability and present with kyphotic spines. Cervicogenic headache usually are at the base of the head. Tmj at in the temples but you can't always separarate the two. Unstable jaw position leads to an unstable neck and eventually postural changes down the body. Recommend treating TMJ and chiropractic.

Can be but...: Headaches have many triggers. I would not rule out any particular causes, including tmj/tmd. See a dr. First.

Any area/yes: Cervical headaches are mostly occipital back of head but can be anywhere. Can be related or coincident with TMJ symptoms.
