I suffer with burning gums, painful teeth, bad taste and a numbness. I have fibromyalgia and was wondering if this is linked? I have good teeth.

After some consultation with colleagues, we have the following thoughts.

First, you discussed the pain with your dentist? You may have a structural issue such as an infection or a misalignment of the jaw.

If your dentist is unable to help, we suggest you see a cranial osteopath who will be able to uncover the cause of your symptoms.

Best wishes and we hope you find some help soon.
