When i lie down i get a dizzy sensation. i haven't noticed it as much recently but maybe ive grown used to it?

Question

also i woke up recently with a pain in my jaw which related to my left ear..when i clench my jaw i got a pain in my ear..could this be related. im worried ive got a tumour or something.

Answer 1

Please go and see a doctor. It sounds like vertigo (the dizziness). The jaw sounds like TMJ. They can run some neurological test(s) and tell you. Are you under a lot of stress?

Stress can make you feel awful also.

Answer 2

Could be an ear infection

Answer 3

not a tumor; you might be suffering from high blood pressure or even low blood pressure--orthostatic pressure but you need to get tested.  The dizziness, does it happen when you get uyp too fast from a sitting position if yes it is orthostatic pressure--there are some meds for it

Answer 4

I'm pretty sure you don't have a tumor...but better be safe and talk to a parent or someone about it!

Answer 5

Maybe you should stop spinning around before you lay down.

Answer 6

You have seasonal allergies. And your sinuses are bothering you. People can develop allergies as they get older. See a Dr. about it if it keeps happening. There are many over the counter medicines that will work though.

The OTC medication I take daily is plain red Sudafed (ask at the pharmacist's counter for it, the stuff in the aisle DOES NOT WORK!)

Plain Claritin, the tiny round white ones. Together the medications work just like Claritin-D, except it is much cheaper, and you can take more Sudafed if needed. Generics and store brands work just as well.

What ya basically need is a histimine blocker and sinus medication together. I have been taking the above combo for years because it works, I have tried many combos, and I do not get drowsy or all speedy from it.

I also take Alleve (2 or 3) when I wake up with such headaches, especially if it is affecting my jaw or ear pressure. (Like you are in a pool right?)

Don't forget to clean the filter on your air conditioner, the dirt and c**p can really irritate allergies more when you sleep with the air on all night, and the filter is dirty.  

Answer 7

You could simply have an inner ear infection. Have you been running a fever or had any cold symptoms in the last week or so.

This is what I found on WebMd.com

Labyrinthitis (inner ear infection) may cause vertigo-a sensation of spinning or whirling-that may be severe enough to cause nausea or vomiting. The vertigo gradually goes away over a period of several days to weeks. However, for a month or longer, a sudden head movement can trigger another attack of vertigo. Labyrinthitis may be accompanied by hearing loss, which is usually temporary.

WebMd.com is a great place to check your symptoms

Answer 8

theyer are many ilnesses associated with jaw and ear pain at the same time, however i would not be concerned about a tumor.. would lean more towards the possibility of (TMJ) better known as lockjaw.. or could be as simple as an ear infection spread to the jaw, absced tooth .etc
