tmj pain from under ear down neck Posted: 04-16-08 16:48pm
I've suffered for a year now, and will
start w/ a chiropractor when school is out
- I'm a teacher. All started with an ear
ache. Here are my symptoms:
crepitus / popping/ cracking - loud - when
closing ONLY
jaw deviates upon opening and closing -
pain moves around - no one spot
teeth don't match top to bottom
no pain when sleeping
neck,shoulder, upper back pain
pain from under both ears downneck under
jaw - intermittent
when jaw is moved larally popping on both
sides
Is it possible to feel the displaced disc?
i swear I do - in front of my ear on the
affected side....
thansk in advance...

im sure that it is possible to feel
it----i dont think that you would feel the
disk its self but the effect of it being
out. I didnt feel mine at all when it was
out.
what are you doing to treat this? I have a
suggesion for you

thanks for the reply - does this sound
like tmj - it does to me! What is your
suggestion? I have some good, but mostly
bad days - I sleep on my back, etc. My jaw
does deviate to one side when opening and
the other when closing - also the grinding
is loud and can be felt when I put my
little finger in my ear. The muscle pain
is all over, even sometimes under the
front of my neck - anyway thanks for any
input - it is much appreciated. I live
near Palm Bch fl.....
