Please answer if you have any thoughts on this. I am sorry to be repetitive about this,but it is so frustrating. Lately I have had terrible sinus issues and tmj has been very bad. I have pain, actually pressure that goes straight to the top of my head. i feel like there is a weight up there pressing on me. I rub and rub and then it feels better. My ears hurt and so does my neck, both sides. I have been at a hospital alot in the past few weeks visiting my mom and I think the sitting up in those awful chairs didn't help.

I guess I am just whining a bit and looking for sympathy. I am so tired of my stupid head having pressure. I want to drill a hole in the top and let it all out.

Thanks for listening. If any of you had felt like this, I could sure use the support.

i get that feeling too like a rubber band around my head , doc said it was a tension head ache and to take an aspirin like bayer or anacin... hope you feel better

Stress and TMJ often travel together. Using a warm heating pad to alleviate the TMJ helps some. I had an appliance made by my dentist once, but that was totally ineffective. Rest is always good.

Hi enough,

Yes had the lot all at once,add in nosebleeds and toothache(which dentist couldn,t find out why) even strong painkillers didn,t relieve the pain.

Could have extracted all my teeth with a pair of blunt pliers to get some relief.

Same as head pressure,kind of gave me a not with it feeling.

Yeah know what you mean

Sending lots of oooh,s and aaaaah,s to you

Thank you guys. Last night I had trouble even laying on the left side, that is the worst for me. the problem is when I lay on the right, my neck bugs me. Woe is me, huh? Anyway, I grabbed a benadryl and finally slept pretty good. Helps both the allergies/sinuses and knocks me out a bit. I just want to hit the lottery or get a huge paying job, so I can go to the chiropractor and acupuncturist. I know they both help soooo much. One of these days......
