Importance of Getting Checked
for TMJ
TMJ is short for temporomandibular joint syndrome. The
temporomandibular joint is the joint that connects your skull
and jawbone together. With TMJ, an injury or misalignment
causes pain, swelling, and tightness in the joint. If you don’t get
checked for TMJ, you most likely won’t even know that you
have it. You’ll wind up suffering from the painful effects that
TMJ has t offer. Here are some of the symptoms of TMJ that
show why it is so important to get checked for the disorder.
Ear problems is one of the most common symptoms of TMJ.
While ear pain is a factor, it’s not limited to pain itself. TMJ can
cause tinnitus, which is a persistent ringing in the ears. For
many people, tinnitus is worse than pain. The TMJ can put
pressure on your inner ear and cause vertigo.
You might also experience some hearing loss. Face and head
pain is another symptom of TMJ. Frequent headaches are a
common issue. The pain radiates from the temporomandinular
joint and into the head. It can go further down into the neck and
shoulders. The pain can also cause muscle spasms through the
neck and shoulders. The pain from the jaw can also radiate the
other way into your face, causing pain in the facial muscles.
TMJ can bring on symptoms that feel like illness. If you have a
sore throat, but the doctors can’t find any sign of infection, that
can be caused by TMJ pain. It can cause you to need to clear
your throat and cough often. You might feel like you have an
object lodged into your throat that won’t come out. It can even
cause you to have trouble swallowing and have strange change
in your voice.
TMJ can even affect the eyes. It can cause you to have dry, red
eyes that look bloodshot more often than not. They might even
appear to have a slight bulge. Pain behind the eyes and sunlight
sensitivity comes from the pain that radiates from the jaw.
Now you see why you need to get checked for TMJ. It’s not just
about jaw pain. It can cause a wide range of serious symptoms
that could be misdiagnosed for years before you figure out that
you have TMJ. It can be caused by many different things. The
joint can become damaged by arthritis or an injury like a fall or
a hit to the face. Even if you’ve never been hit or have arthritis,
you could have a disc slip in your neck, not know it, and that
can cause TMJ. Visit this website to inquire about TMJ
