Hypochondriac central

At the office.
Couple days ago, convinced I might need an x-ray at the dentist to screen for bone cancer. This strange, intense soreness had returned to my left interior jawline, underneath my chin, and though I hadn’t felt it in some time it was back. I was straining my mind to assess what muscle attachments lay there, what glands or lymph nodes.
With these worries still lurking, I picked up my fiddle the next morning and put it to my chin…..with the chin rest falling right on the sore spot.
That’s why I have a sore spot.
Now I remember. It’s just been so long since I played regularly. It’s from playing my fiddle again. The fiddle had been another casualty of internet use. I’m glad it’s not bone cancer. Just a “healing crisis” from coming off internet use, that comes in the form of a sore chin caused by getting back into a favorite activity instead of lurking around online.
