What Causes Throbbing Sensation In The Upper And Lower Jaw?

I had an biopsy in September, results said I have lycomucositis. I am told there is no cure just treat the symptoms. My jaw throbs upper and lower frequently. Red gums with what feels like bumps to me on my gums and the roof of my mouth. No drainage that I know of, Dentist says it's hormonal, he says he only knows of women who have had it. My lymph nodes in my neck sometimes feel edematous and I have the chills at times.

Hello,

If you have mucositis you can start gargling with specialized mouthwash like Magic mouthwash as it will help in reducing inflammation as well as relieve pain, and also have antibacterial and antifungal properties. Take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen. You can suck ice and do cool water rinses to reduce inflammation. You can also start taking vitamin B complex (Becosule) regularly.

Do cool compresses over the lymph nodes. In case if there is no improvement consult an oral physician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora
