Sounds crazy, but whenever i bend over or lean downward i get a sharp pain in my left jaw and it hurts bad! any ideas? should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May be sinusitis: Fluid in the sinuses will move forward when bending down or turning the head putting pressure on the maxillary branch of the trigeminal nerve which runs along the floor of the maxillary sinus. This can result in referred pain/pressure to the face and jaw/teeth. See your oral surgeon or ENT for a diagnosis.
