Can Jaw Pain Cause Headaches?
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have headaches every day, sometimes severe. One evening I was struggling with a bad headache and my jaw bones were extremely painful as well. I have to take Tylenol Arthritis 1300 mg every 8 hours in order to control the headaches, but it doesn't always work.

Yes it can. You should get with your dentist and get tested to see if you have TMJ - Temporomandibular joint dysfunction in your jaw. I have it and was having headaches from it.
