19 And Arthritis In Jaw And Hips? Posted: 02-11-04 23:04pm
Hi all,
im 19 and have just been diagnosed with
oesteoathritis in my jaw!!
Tempromandibular joints and my hips. Its
increadibly painful to eat and ive been to
about 4 doctors with the same diagnosis
and none of them can say why its happened
or do anything about it. Im not an
athlete and since it is a degenerative
thing and linked with age and I do nothing
in particular that places stress on these
particular joints, does anyone know of
other younger people with this?

Its not the same as you but I have
arthritus in both my wrists but this is
cause I did gymnastics for 11 years and I
was trained hevily on my wrists and when I
broke something in my leg or hurt my legs
I just trained on my wrists and there was
a lot of pressure thats whta has caused
mine and I am 16. But I dont know how you
could of got yours sorri xxxx

Hey well I actually did gymanstics from
about 6 up till I was about 12 trained 4
days a week. Ive been speaking to other
girls who did gym and they have the same
sort of problems now. Probably why my
hips are bad, not sure about my jaw.
