Has anybody seen something similar to this? - any ideas?

[Guest guest]

My son has a particular habit that started last year, then stopped

and has now restarted. He is almost constantly mashing a spot up

under his jaw - he uses his thumb and presses up pretty firmly. Can

be either side. When I asked why he does this, he says it itches.

Any thoughts?

I would consider yeast first.

My son is not doing this, altho he is doing a strange movement with

his jaw, which I discovered is probably related to the B vitamin

experiment I am currently doing [see previous message]. Have not

figured out exactly which B yet, tho.

The salivary glands under my jaw sometimes feel strange and cause me to want to

press on them. I haven't figured out what causes it or what to do to relieve

it. It hasn't happened in a while, so maybe detoxing has helped.
