I used to dip but I managed to quit. Now usually every morning I wake up with a pain in my left side jaw and it eventually converts into a headache. there are no lumps in my mouth I was just wondering If any one knows whats causing this.

Do you have any ear pain?

How long did you dip for? Did you smoke tobacco at all? Any troubles swallowing?

Sounds like TMJ.....you should go see a dentist & they will be able to tell you. Look up the other symptoms of TMJ & see if you have any of them as well. Good Luck!!
