Patient's Query
Hi sir iam having tmj left jaw but I feel pain and tingling numbness complete left side from head to toe I have done brain CT mri nothing found pls help me with the problen
Answered by Dr. Gurneet Sawhney
While TMJ (temporomandibular joint) issues can cause facial pain, jaw stiffness, and sometimes radiating discomfort to the neck and head, numbness and tingling from head to toe on one side suggest involvement beyond just TMJ.
Since your brain CT and MRI are normal, the issue may lie in the nerves outside the brain, possibly from the cervical spine (neck area) or peripheral nerves. Sometimes, nerve compression, postural imbalances, or even functional neurological disorders can present like this.
You should consult a neurologist and also, a maxillofacial specialist or physiotherapist familiar with TMJ can help manage jaw-related symptoms.
