I have been prescribed by my ENT physcian Flexeril 5mg three times/day for TMJ muscle spasms which were caused by a traumatic dental visit.
The spasms are causing inflammation and pressure on my eustachian tubes resulting in a sensation of being plugged up with extreme pressure inside my head and ringing in my ears. They feel plugged up and are very painful. This also results in dizziness and nausea.
Flexeril is the only thing that has eliminated the spasms and opened my ears but I don't want to use it long term. I am looking for an herbal muscle relaxer alternative to stop the spasms in my TMJ joint which are affecting my ears.
