Does any one esle have jaw pain or know if it is also part of anxiety?

Hi rebka..I do get jaw pain often. It turns out that it is from near constant muscle tension in my neck and face. I have gone through the program and have found the less anxious I am daily, the less my jaw aches. I hope this helps you.

Hi again..I didn't feel I was specific enough. lol My jaw pain comes from clenching my teeth when I'm feeling anxious, which causes tension in my face.

Thank you Deener for your reply, I do clench my teeth alot, but I've found mine also comes when I have heartburn for some reason.I worry because someone told me that jaw pain is also a sign of a heartattack. my anxiety is getting bad again I've been better for about a year and now here it comes again. Anyway thank you ,GOD BLESS.

Unfortunately a lot of symptoms of a Heart attack are similar to anxiety. I too clench my jaw almost constantly, I have to tell myself to relax. See your Dr have your fear of Heart problems removed and one less thing to worry about. Remember Jaw pain is just one possible symptom.
