TMJ

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) syndrome or TMJ joint disorders are medical problems related to the jaw joint. The TMJ connects the lower jaw to the skull (temporal bone) under your ear.

I have joined a dear friend of mine with a disordered called TMJ. You see the fantastic oral surgeon jacked up my jaw when I had my wisdom teeth out. Now daily I have a wonderful pain in my jaw that goes up into my ear. It is quite painful. I have gotten my jaw adjusted two days in a row and it is one of the most horrendous pains I have felt. It literally feels as if I am going to jump out of my own skin. Not a fun experience. My hopes is that in the coming days and weeks the pain will lesson, my jaw will realign, and I will feel better. Until then, down with the dentists!
