Conundrum with swelling
So I have convinced myself over the course of the last year as to why I keep having issues with pain and swelling in my eyes, jaw around the side of my face. I just recently posted in regards to thinking this is related to root canals. I think I might prove myself wrong again.
I need help sifting this out! lol Last night I woke up in the middle of the night in severe pain in my right side (this is the side I have the bridge/rootcanals) and the pressure was so severe I thought my head would split wide open or my ear drum would burst. I put the zapper on my neck for about 10 minutes then went back to sleep, in pain but not as excruciating.
This am I got up and started to investigate what is causing all this pain. Where the jaw meets, dead in the center in the inside of the mouth it feels like a swollen gland but I don't think it is because as I move above up to the roof of my mouth I can feel what feels the same only smaller and very hard. I think what might be going on is that I have stones in there. I've also got one under my tongue on that side as well that has been there a good four years. When I first got that one I asked ENT and he said they could try to flush it out with iodine. I never did have it done, but this morning I got to thinking about this. Why would they use
Iodine to try to flush the stone out? It apparently must work? How do I do this myself without having them inject it in there? Not sure what to do. He has retired from practice now so that is a dead end.
I'm so miserable I can hardly stand it anymore. My right eye, jaw, ear, neck, shoulder and arm hurt and I keep running small fevers on and off through the course of this whole crappin thing. It's been going on forever and I'm so tired out from feeling so awful and not really knowing what the root cause is. But the fact there are these stones that I can feel makes it highly suspect.
One other thing I'm curious about is if the bridge on that side of my mouth could actually cause stones? I've never had any stones on the left side so it seems really odd.
Anyhow, if anyone has any input to this I would appreciate. I'm thinking of doing some high dosing of
SSKI .
Thanks!
