  Dealing with TMJ

  Posted by alyssa-silva on September 21, 2020 at 9:18 am

  Does anyone here deal with TMJ? I have been a mess these last few weeks, and I’m so worn out from the pain I’ve experienced. I don’t know why but I always get TMJ at this time of year.

  My guess is that the weather is getting colder and I’m clenching my jaw more in my sleep. There’s also the main side effect of 2020… stress! So I have a feeling it’s going to linger. I’ve also had an ear infection and bad seasonal allergies this month too. And I think the combination of everything is getting to me.

  Any remedies for TMJ, besides seeing a doctor? I know people use mouth guards but would that conflict with my BiPAP and needing to call out to get rolled over?
