Hello,

Thank you for posting your query at DoctorSpring

Your symptoms could be TM Joint dysfunction. However, we also need to consider migraine in view of your symptoms.
Treatment at this point could begin with a combination of pregabalin and topiramate, which would take care of both the problems.
I would expect an improvement in a months time. If not, I would do an MRI brain including CT of TM joint for further evaluation.
I hope it helps. Please do get back if you have any follow up queries.

Best wishes,

Dr. Sudhir Kumar MD (Medicine), DM (Neurology)
