Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hi there - I've had the same annoying throbbing pain for 4 weeks and it's finally going away... slowly. It seems to come and go. It's in my chin (had genioplasty) and lower front gums... especially the gums, even though they're numb. I'm also wearing my elastics on my front teeth and think it may be the elastics, but I'm not sure. I find that keeping my mind busy seems to help forget the pain is there. Now that I'm back to work, I don't even notice it while working. It's a 24 hour deal and usually worse at night. It's kept me up one too many nights though.
