I'm experiencing this pain in my right butt cheek, and it's really bothering me, especially when I sit down. It feels like there's a spot where the muscle is really hard. I'm not sure what's happening. Any ideas about what it could be?

I'm having a tough time with my jaw lately. When I open my mouth, it shifts to the right, and when I close it, it goes to the left. There's also this clicking sound on the right side whenever I open my mouth. It seems like the left side is way more flexible than the right. Plus, I'm finding it hard to open my mouth fully and I've been experiencing trouble breathing when I sleep on my back. My face feels so tight and tired all the time. On top of that, my neck and back are hurting quite a bit. I'm really not sure what to do at this point. Are there any exercises or treatments that might help with this?

Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may be experiencing temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. You can take an anti-inflammatory medication like Ibuprofen 400mg to reduce inflammation and pain in the jaw joint. For the clicking sound and difficulty in jaw movement, you can try doing jaw exercises such as gentle jaw stretches, chin tucks, and jaw opening and closing exercises. These exercises can help improve the mobility and strength of your jaw muscles. It is also important to practice good posture, avoid chewing gum, and eat soft foods to reduce strain on your jaw. Applying a warm compress to the jaw area can also help alleviate muscle tension. If your symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend seeking further evaluation and treatment from a dentist or a TMJ specialist.

I'm dealing with this painful swelling on the middle right side of my back, and it feels like the muscle there has turned into a rock. It really hurts when I try to sleep on that side. Went to my GP and got some meds and cream, but they havent really done the trick. Could this be a muscle knot, and what can I do to get rid of it?

Sounds like you may be dealing with a muscle knot in your back. To help relieve the pain and swelling, you can try using a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (Cyclobenzaprine) along with a topical pain relief cream like Voltaren Gel (Diclofenac). Additionally, applying a heating pad to the affected area and gently massaging the muscle knot can also help to alleviate the discomfort. Make sure to avoid sleeping on the right side to prevent further aggravating the muscle. If the symptoms persist, it would be best to follow up with your GP for further evaluation and treatment.
