Jaw Pain?

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
Las Vegas, NV

Is jaw pain associated with RA? It hurts to chew gum or any food for too long.

My jaw will ache when I have a flare. Sometimes it affects most of my face.

Any joint is eligible for the pain. When things feel weird to you, remind yourself, "Oh yeh, I have RA!"!

Sure is, and it hurts!! I was hit with this not long ago, couldn't eat as I couldn't chew. I drank through a straw , but that hurt to. Pray your jaw gets better as I know the pain involved Lots of hugs.

Most times mine last days and it's on both sides. My jaw swells enough that at times I'm hanging a hard time hear.
