What Causes Sharp Pain Near The Jaw And Throat?
hello, When I sit down I feel a sharp pain up near my jaw line where my throat and jaw meet. It also gives me a shooting pain in the back of my head as well as a sudden feeling of weakness all over, as well as slightly blurred vision and slight confusion. This happened twice today and it seams like possibly my pants/belt might have been too tight on my waist because when I noticed that tight feeling and loosened up my pants and belt it seamed to improve. But could this be a concern like maybe a hernia that cuts off oris strangulating or something causing my symptoms? Thanks

Hello,
Based on mentioned symptoms one diagnosis cannot be given.
But Vasculitis, transient ischemic attack etc needs to be ruled out.
So I suggest you consult nearby physician for detailed neurological evaluation, blood pressure measurement, ESR estimation and EKG for primary workup.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
