Dr. Alexios Apazidis answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Reconstructive Surgery

Many diagnoses: There are literally dozens of diagnoses for this single symptom. Vasculitis, autoimmune disease, migraine, muscle spasm, TMJ disorder. You need to be examined, have labs ordered, and possibly have imaging done.
