Hello, Debbie! How are you?

No, that means that you shouldn't be out using a sauna, or a tanning booth, or spending a lot of time in the hot sun. This medication may make you more susceptible to such extreme temperatures.

The FDA classifies this medication as being a muscle relaxant and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth.

When using a heating pad, just be careful that you don't start to feel overheated and try not to leave it on too long.

Is there anything else I can help with?

I have been taking advil once or twice a day for TMJ for 3 1/2 to 4 weeks. I heard taking advil or tylenol can cause rebound pain when taking them for headaches, would that also apply to taking Advil for TMJ could that cause you to get a headache or tight feeling around my head or is most likely probably slept different. Does rebound pain just apply directly when taking medicine for headaches?

The rebound headaches can occur, regardless of what you're taking it to treat.

However, the TMJ itself could be causing those symptoms. I've even had mine cause earaches by putting pressure on the nerves due to inflammation in my jaw.

When is the last time you consulted your dentist?

I see oral surgeon March 11th. How about muscle relaxers, do they cause rebound head aches. I stopped advil anyway now because of being on it for almost 4 weeks. I am taking flexeril for tight facial muscle.
