I had TMJ and went to a specialist that only dealt with TMJ. He X-rayed my jaw. It was arthritis! Sent me to his favorite physical therapist and she got rid of all the pain! I couldnโ€™t even open my mouth all the way when I first went to the doctor.

I use a jade roller and Gua sha every day it helps my TMJ I also have night guards for my bite they help me sleep because my Dentist mentioned that I grind my teeth If it gets really really bad I use Icy Hot roll on both sides of my face and jaw. I try to take Magnesium glycinate every night to help me sleep and use the Calm app too. I looked back at what I wrote WOW!!! I am genuinely a happy person Haha ๐Ÿ˜‚ in spite of ALL thisโ€ฆ.. I think my Mums positive attitude helped. She was a strong woman that woke up everyday with a Smile ๐Ÿ˜Š on her face She had a few serious operations during her lifetime. She would come back even stronger than before she was Amazing. My whole family was. ๐Ÿฅฐ. Everyone I wish there was a magic potion or Pixie ๐Ÿงšโ€โ™€๏ธ Dust to cure our Migraines but for now we grin and bear it. We can lean on each other and compare notes. Thank you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป Everyone for all your notes. Stay Strong ๐Ÿ’ช โœจ

My neurologist said TMJ and migraine often go together. I'm getting Botox and he includes shots in my jaw. It helps.

I have wirn a nightgaurd from a dentist for decades. I had to go thru 6 sessions of PT so I could open my mouth. I hadn't had migraines until after the PT sessions. My jaw pain is gone and my jaw mobility is much better but now I'm having migraines.
I will let you know what the headache clinic says.

I had TMJ so bad I could open my mouth all the way and it was very painful. I went to a doctor that specialized in TMJ. He x-rayed my jaw and found extensive arthritis in my jaw. Sent me to a particular physical therapist and she got rid of it about two years ago and hasnโ€™t come back!
