Re: Flexoril for muscle tension and ear fullness

Thanks for the info on Flexoril.

Did any of you have any ear-related symptoms?

If so, do you think the Flexoril provided some relief from those symptoms?

Re: Flexoril for muscle tension and ear fullness

I do have ear pain sometimes and Flexeril does help. Acupuncture has also helped me.

Re: Flexoril for muscle tension and ear fullness

I have mostly ear ringing and a muffled feeling - it eased up a bit when I started going to a NUCCA chiro. None of the meds I tried affected my ears. I was thinking of trying accupuncture - how do you find a good acupuncturist?

Re: Flexoril for muscle tension and ear fullness

I was lucky to find a good Acup. the first time. He has 28 yrs. experience and knows his stuff. Try to find one who offers a free consultation so you can feel him/her out. You can try it a few times to see if you get any relief. If not, try a different one. Good luck.

I forgot to mention that if you decide to try Acup, ask them on the phone if they treat TMJ. There was one place I called and the woman didn't know what TMJ was!!
