I read on the net how a swollen turbinate can cause head pain and also facial pain, it never say's though where abouts in the face it can cause pain. Can a swollen turbinate cause jaw(tmj)pain? I really want to know this and they don't know in the TMJ forum.

^Can't anyone answer that?:(

Mine caused pain around my eye. I think it is very possible it could cause jaw pain.

Thanks.

I had a appointment at the hospital today and i asked, I was told it couldn't cause jaw pain. I don't think he knows for sure though, I bet if i asked someone else they would say something different.

I was told also that my septum wasn't straight(which I knew)and he asked me how that happened because my septum was only corrected about 6 years ago. I said I didn't know because it's not like I've had an accident in that time or been punched etc.:confused: So maybe I'm right about rubbing your nose hard when it's really itchy because of an allergy? Maybe that can damage your septum? Because I can't think how else I could have done it.

Jaw pain can be a sign of inflammation or infection in the Maxillary Sinuses.
