Ive been having these pretty severe cramps under my chin, especially when I laugh. It's pretty painful and usually lasts around 2 minutes, but it seems to take about 15 minutes to calm down. Is this something serious? Should I be worried or do you think it will go away on its own?

I'm feeling some tightness in a portion of my head, just above my left ear, and it's been going on for about a year now. When I massage that area, it seems to relax. I'm a bit concerned and wondering what might be causing this. Could it be something I should look into further?

The tightness you're feeling above your left ear could be related to muscle tension, stress, or even a tension headache, especially since massaging the area provides relief. However, if the sensation persists or worsens, or if other concerning symptoms arise, its a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment.
