Are you suffering from a stiff jaw feeling? Or even worse, the pain in the jaw and / or inner ear pain? What could be what is commonly called ATM (or Tempro-mandibular joint dysfunction syndrome). It is a common problem in people who tend to grind their teeth. This is what is also known as bruxism. ATM jaw pain, especially for ordinary people who tend to grit my teeth at night and sleep in it without knowing it. This is simply called sleep bruxism. Grinding teeth during sleep is often more severe, simply because you always do, and maybe they do not know it. At least in the daytime, while awake, you can go alone to tighten the jaw and / or bite the bullet and stop.
The usual cause gnashing of teeth, which then ultimately leads to the jaw TMJ pain is stress. People who experience high levels of stress in their lives, personal, financial, work and so on, subconsciously (and sometimes conscious) tend to bite his jaws and bite the bullet. Now there are other precursors of bruxism and TMJ jaw pain, it is not always related to stress, but it is the most common factor.
Now of course you need to treat the symptoms, but it is also important to address the causes, otherwise you can spend your whole life to treat symptoms and never get to the root of the problem. This article is not taught to relieve stress, but it is something you should consider if you have TMJ jaw pain. Do not rely on pills, creams and / or exercises to permanently cure your jaw pain forever. Failure to address the root of the problem, you never know when the pain may recur unexpectedly.
Anyway, he said that treatment options include everything from prescription drugs in the anti-inflammatory drugs, warm cloths on the jaw (moist heat) for myofascial therapy. This involves a qualified massage and manipulate parts of the head, neck and jaw to relieve tension. I think this is one of the best opportunities. Although you can purchase guides on how to do it yourself and save a lot of money. Many of the exercises are fairly easy to use in your daily routine and is very good at defending again a future attack on the TMJ jaw pain.
If you get a click and / or popping of the jaw when opening and closing your mouth, it is also a form of temporomandibular joint syndrome. You should always consult a dentist or doctor if they experience any type of pain, particularly pain in the jaw TMJ. But if they recommend surgery is very tired and always, always buy a second if not third opinion. maxillofacial surgery can be a very serious review. But sometimes it may be the only option for people with serious problems. But do not let you get to this point by ignoring the problems. Listen to your body!
I personally experienced severe TMJ jaw pain for me, at least 3 times in my life. It 'was close to the worst pain I've ever known in my inner ear, but it was only when I chew food. I totally agree with the exercises to relieve TMJ pain, but above all to be repeated. Honestly, I immediately went to the doctor when it happened and had been prescribed some strong anti-inflammatory drugs. But it was just a pain to do in a hurry. I have not and are not dependent on drugs to prevent this from happening again. The drug is only a patch and a quick fix. They are not something you should always trust to confirm or correct the problem if the TMJ jaw pain.
