Back pain symptoms may seem obvious. But do you know when symptoms of back pain are more serious or when to see a doctor? Learn what action to take & when...
Im not sure where to start, I have been getting upper back pain extremly stiff neck into the left side of my jaw which is stiff to move and painful to touch but I have also been getting a pain on the side of the tongue as well as underneath with a sore throat on that side, and when I go to bed at night just as im drifting of to sleep I get what feels like a rush of pins and needles into my arms eventually I can drift off to sleep :( . I have been to 2 ent surgeons and 3 oral surgeons no one can shed any light on what is happening to me apart from tmj myofascial maybe.



Does any one have any ideas as to what this could be, this all stared when I was 7wks pregnant with my baby and now she is 8mths old.

Thankyou for taking the time to read this :?

Thank You
Thank you for yr reply. Im not sure how a nerve problem can cause such discomfort in yr mouth such as tongue pain normally on one side per time, throat feeling as if it is closing not to mention the right side upper back pain, I have always suffered with lower back pain but this is really quite painful.
When things are really bad I also suffer with what feels like shortness of breath although I know I can get a full lung of air. When my partner rubs my back it is really frustrating as I get no relief almost like the pain is too deep into my back.


Any ideas!!!! :(
