Guest guest Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 Hey everyone! I have a question for anyone who has gone swimming after having jaw surgery. I had upper and lower surgery about 6 months ago, and when I swim laps, I get a weird pressure sensation in my upper jaw/sinus that goes down into one of my front teeth. It doesn't necessarily hurt, but it doesn't feel good either. It almost feels like my sinus bones are vibrating and I'm hoping I'm not doing any damage. Has anyone else ever experienced this or know what's going on? Any replies would be appreciated. Thanks! -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 Call your surgeon and ask someone in his or her office. I doubt that it's anything serious, but best to find out. It's not unusual to have issues with pressure in the ears after surgery, and I'm guessing that this may be related. But why guess? You've paid someone to give you real answers!

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 i have recently had a sinus infection and have been having odd sensations in the " roots of my back molars " when i blow my nose. everything seems different to some degree after this surgery and i don't expect some of it to ever go away. Good luck. > > > > Hey everyone! I have a question for anyone who has gone swimming > > after having jaw surgery.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 I've had that sensation when blowing my nose (rinsing it with water - I suck it up and blow it out). It's just a different feeling. But as Cammie says, check it with your surgeon. (upper/lower/genio Aug 2002) > > Hey everyone!
