Yes, I get it in the cheek too, feels like it's deep in the bone and the MUSCLE in my face goes into a CRAMP, like a leg cramp, ONLY in the face, for 2 to 4 hrs with no let up.
In fact, it's all of the right side of my face from teeth up into sclap and across forehead. I also swell real bad on that side of my head.
Sometimes, when I start to swell I can hear the bones in my head, POP, as the swelling gets up more and more, as it takes up space in my head. The pressure is like my head will explored. Also my ear hurts a little.
EVen in remission (on meds) there is always pressure in the temple everyday of my life to let me know it's still there. But I do have remission on meds without having the pain.
Does anyone else have the popping noise as the pain and pressure increase? It is so scary... you think how much swelling and bone popping can your head take? Will it stop this time or exploded?
