Thread: Neck, shoulder pain...Connected to jaw pain?

get it fully checked out!

Hi, I'm having the same exact issues. It seems to originate in my shoulder, then go up my neck, to my jaw. Even my ear bothers me. My jaw cracks. Sometimes its hard to open. But it seems to be triggered by my shoulder. I have bad posture as well after spending almost 4 years working 3/4 time, and going to graduate school. I'm in physical therapy, and it seems to help with my muscles, but my shoulder area makes a popping sound as well. Does anyone know what this is? Its driving me nuts.
