Burning skin symptom

[SomeRandomDude]

Hello again, I have no real updates on my jaw, with other things going on like graduations and moving house, I haven't had a chance to find a cheap dentist. However I will say that things have improved.

But today I have a new symptom, this morning I noticed a burning sensation around the right side of my face. In the cheek and a tiny bit into my temple.. I know this is a symptom common with stress and anxiety. But I haven't had an episode or even worried about anything much since I addressed my jaw problems to you guys and relatives.

I've had physical symptoms accompany an episode or while worrying. But never really on it's own. Maybe a little after I've calmed down. But never on their own deays afterward. Can physical symptoms like that happen randomly even when you're not being anxious?

Yes they can. I knwo this may sound odd but you can have some anxiety and it not really be that noticable to you yourself because it is your norm. Subconsciously you worry about something and your body reacts. Having said that, the burning sensation may be something totally different from anxiety - it could be a nerve or muscle that has been irritated, etc. - could have happened while you were sleeping.

if it continues a few days without going away, you might want to get it checked out but I doubt it is anything serious

I have this from time to time and it’s definitly anxiety. I have something similar in my chin and lip that comes and goes and I’m almost positive that it’s anxiety also, but it’s what my HA has me focused on now so it’s more noticeable to me, I think. Anxiety does some crazy things, but like RobbyH said, give it a few days and if it doesn’t go away, have it checked out just to be on the safe side. Keep us posted.

Sorry for the late response!

Oh wow, I've been dealing with anxiety for quite some time, and I don't think I've had symptoms occur like that. And not even an hour later that day, the sensation gradually went away.

As for causes that may not be anxiety. Could this sensation have anything to do with headaches? I get them often.
