Aches and Pains You Should Never Ignore

Any Random Pain

No one wants to be in pain, but discomfort and painful symptoms are your body’s way of telling you something isn’t right and requires your immediate attention. If you are experiencing random pains you cannot explain, it’s important to take notice. Fibromyalgia is an example of a condition that increases an individual's sensitivity to pain and can make it seem as if the pain has no discernable trigger. In some cases, depression and stress are to blame, leading to back pain and headaches, among other pains with no apparent cause.

Pain In The Jaw

Pain in the jaw can be an indicator of a few different conditions. Sometimes, when accompanied by other symptoms such as numbness on one side of the body or chest pain, it can indicate an issue with the heart. In some instances, jaw pain could indicate an ear infection, since the pain from such an infection can radiate. Jaw pain may also be a sign of a toothache or another tooth issue like a cavity. Of course, a common cause of jaw pain is temporomandibular joint disease, which can be mild, but can also be quite severe and cause significant lasting damages. Because of this, jaw pain should not be pushed to the wayside.
