The bone on the left side of my face is tender to the touch. Is it zygomatic arch ?

It will be better if you can provide with some more details related to the tenderness like the nature of pain, is it continuous? does it increase during chewing food? does it go on its own? is there any history of trauma?

MD My 12 yr old daughter has had intermittent redness, warmth (so much that you can hold your hand close and feel it without actually touching it), and tenderness upon palpation (very little pain with chewing/movement) over the zygomatic bone for about 2 months. This may have begun after she ran into our dog with the hover board and they butted heads, but we aren t certain. From what I can tell, the pain is In the exact area that temporal mandibular syndrome occurs. There is no clicking of the jaw or pain at the TMJ. She has had a couple of instances where her vision got blurry (she describes it as what I would associate with an aura seen with migraine) and got dizzy with a headache at the same time. This could be unrelated. But it s happened in the same time frame as she hit the dog and has this wierd phenomenon with her cheek. Pediatrician has dismissed us twice (she isn t exhibiting symptoms when we go) and the orthodontist says it s not related to his area of expertise. This happens quite often. Many times a day. Any ideas?
MD I have pain on both sides of my zygomatic bones that is excruitiating at times when I open my mouth or use my muscles in my mouth. I can barely open up at times. This has been going on for years and is getting progressively worst as the years go by. What can this be?
MD Im having a pain in my zygomatic area. 4 years ago i had jaw surgery. I had an underbite class III. ever since my face really changed and doesnt feel like its mine. The right side of my face has been swollen ever since and the muscles from temporalis to zygomatic area feels really tight. Even though i stretch and massage daily this does not have any impact on the swelling. Please help. Also checked on my sinusses already and that doesnt seem to be the problem.
