(no subject)
last week my right side face joint made a really terrible crackling noise and I have been in yo-yoing between mild to moderate pain ever since
i can't chew on that side now, i feel the pain in the roots of my teeth, my ear
i can't make expressions with that side for too long, because that eye will water
i can't lay down, because the pain is radiating out into my neck and shoulder. literally no position is comfortable. also if i lay down i catch myself clenching because of pain WHICH REALLY ISN'T HELPING
all of the usual self-care shit i do to take care of it ISN'T WORKING (moist heat, icy hot, 2:2 tylenol/ibuprofen, potassium, hydrating). i'm about to slap a stupid lidocaine patch on it because???? maybe???? I even looked for homeopathic remedies (using pubmed and nih, i hate
I DON'T WANT PAINKILLERS, MUSCLE RELAXERS DON'T WORK ON THIS, I need anti-inflammatories or anti-spasmodics or something this shit is redonk
i have to be at work in 5.5 hours
haa ha
