A member asked:
My son had wisdom tooth extracted twelve months ago he is disabled and is still in pain with muscle spasms, what do you suggest.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Myo Facial Pain: One needs to be examined to make sure there is not a fracture of the mandible or a residual(infected) cyst. Sometimes the 2nd molar, the tooth next door is the problem. Sometimes the muscles of the face are in spasm, hence myo facial pain.
