who's watching this with a tmj/locked jaw right now?
I am I can't open my mouth from I hit my jaw
Me but i can open my jaw but it hurts to open it
XD I searched "tmj stress" and this was the eighth result
My jaw doesn't hurt ar all but it cracks when I make a specific movement
Do u feel it on the left side of face under it Where your gum is I do I feel it stabbing pain and pulsing anyone?
I love how when I was looking up tmj cures on you tube this video comes up
Right!?
exactly
ozdenta
TheChellybean85 yep
Same here
I love how Rhett always corrects Link and goes "that's not possible" and "that can't happen" and "it's been proven"
ikr. So cute.
and then Rhett goes and says something like "I ate through my nose for a week"
"You will not choke on macaroni, I've tried".
?
Tyrone Griggs j
This is Actualy True You Cant Choke On **Cooked** Mac n Cheese It Just Slides.

I have severe TMJ. My jaw on the left side cracks throughout the day and gets very stiff. It was caused by the orthodontist. And I am so pissed off.
How can we fix it
Omg same with me it's so annoying
Do you still have it? If not then kik me:V3NTUSS21 plz I really need help
Same!
Rose Watson That's not severe, it's mild. My jaw has been partially locked for a couple months and even that's not considered severe XD
Link, welcome to the Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction club!
Fox population literally everyone at some point
One lock jaw does not equal TMJ dysfunction
Fox welcome new member
Hi im a new member, and id like to leave soon. *please* *help* *me*
@@redly3615 for real are you still a member i've missed school for 2 weeks now
I have a locked jaw right now and I'm trying to fix it :(
Mikaela Argyrakis Yeah it's still locked, I'm gonna go see a professional but thanks
+Nicholas Miele That's the best thing to do. My mom won't let me see a doctor or even tell our family doctor about it..
:( Wow! That's unfortunate, why not?
+Nicholas Miele She just doesn't want to spend the money for it, yet she buys herself hundreds of dollars in protein powders and clothes. I don't know.
+Nicholas Miele Me too :(
Good metaphor. "Pain was my alarm clock."
Did anyone else catch the whole "You can't choke on macaroni, I'VE TRIED"?
I was very worried about Rhett when he said that...
Satire?
I have to try that now...
im very worried about rhett now!
When I heard that I just had that "are you serious" look on my face.
Does anyone get anxiety from tmj I'm just wondering cause I suffer from tmj and anxiety but I'm pretty young so I'm not sure if this is actually a thing
💀👀👻
Yes
yeah for sure! stress and anxiety can cause you to grind your teeth at night which in turn causes the tmj. if my jaw gets locked up i then get really anxious about it because i don't want to have to go to the dentist etcetc but usually if i leave it and do the exercises (like the ones link talked about) then it does cease eventually. you just have to try and not panic.
I just get anxiety that my jaw will lock or dislocate :-/ hopefully that never happens
Natalie Oh No I know Rhett and Link have many girls watching their videos, but the disproportionate number of girls complaining about having TMJ is kinda weird. It seems to be a big issue with girls.
Anyone have ear issues with TMJ?
BAT T yessss it actually made me believe I have an ear infection
Yes, I absolutely hate it
I have constant rigging in my ears due to it..
I do my ear feels clogged and I have pressure in my cheek bones
How long did it last for you guys?
7:08 Apparently Rhett has attempted suicide by macaroni.
lol ikr
XD lol bro.
it's exactly the way he would choose to go
Im actually laughing from that 😂
I got TMJ after having my wisdom teeth removed
Same with me now
same
SAME
same!
Same 😔
You guys are absolutely hilarious!! I've had TMJD for years now and even with all of the pain and discomfort it's caused me, you had me laughing hysterically!
I am 19 and have had TMJ disorder for 7 years now and have to sleep with a splint(mouthguard) in. Some days are better than others, but today was a bad day! I've had excruciating pain the entire day and i wish i could just break my jaw off and get a new one. This video was a humurous take on TMJ disorder though! Haha, thank-you!
Did you ever have any braces / invisalign prior to developing the problem? I had invisalign. I don't know if it had anything to do with it. Do you have pain in the upper back, shoulders, neck and temples too?
my jaw has been locked for a month, multiple dentists have confirmed my joint is locked, they set up an appointment with a surgeon where they'll displace my jaw and remove 3 wisdom teeth then reset my jaw under heavy IV sedation.
Gerardo Argueta it actually resolved itself amazingly, the few week before the surgery it started getting much better and it's completely fine now no pain or popping at all
I am glad your ok now.
Legocity77 Thank you!
Gerardo Argueta Did you have your surgery?
You're lucky...
This video has destroyed my hope in curing my own TMD ;-;
I developed TMJ even though I barely chew my food. It is from grinding my teeth at night/clenching my jaw, too much fluid in my sinuses, sleeping in positions where a lot of pressure is on my face, and most of all: compulsive mouth-biting. I constantly bite the skin inside my mouth, so my jaw has been overused from stretching. Been doing it since I was a toddler and don't know how to stop even though the pain becomes awful :'( Doctor gave me spray that helps get rid of the fluid, and that helps a little.
What spray cuz i think i have too much mucus build up myself .
And when i vape it hurts even more near my jaw bone
@@1smae100 Yeahh…throw the vape away step 1
I have TMJ as well, my jaw dislocated. I'm currently getting treatment, I had to wear a splint for 6 months. Those 6 months was heaven! No jaw clicking/popping, no jaw pain or migraines. Now I have to wear braces since the splint changed my bite. I still get headaches but not as bad as before... Living with this disorder sucks. Just imagine headaches everyday & not being able to eat a burger :(
Hey really i too have a slight click in my left side of my face opening mh mouth is not be good
Hey really i too have a slight click in my left side of my face opening mh mouth is not be good
Lady Chillz I cut my food in tiny pieces, I still eat whatever I want. :)
My daughter has such a bad case of TMJ.. She cries every night in pain.. I hope this works... Thanks for sharing
Did it work?
Did it work?
Been 7 years did it work?
Did it work?
We gotta know
I've had tmj syndrome for 3 months now and I get to the point of crying. Watching this made me feel like I wasn't one with it. :)
TMJ is so painful believe me I have it
Hell yeah!
9sorem9 Definitely painful... my jaw doesn't lock closed, it will sometimes lock open (normally when yawning) which is a bit more scary because locked close you can still at least somewhat swallow so you can still at least drink, locked open there is no way to swallow even a tiny sip of water. I have never had to go to the doctor/hospital for it yet because I can generally hit it hard enough to get it closed after several minutes though I am sure if I yawned again and it locked open again shortly after I would have to actually go to the hospital for it because it hurts like hell for several hours after the first time it locks, I don't think I could get it back a second time.
In either case (opened or closed) it hurts really bad and can be very scary even if it isn't uncommon for you, specially those times where it is worse then your norm.
hockeyhacker97 if your gonna yawn put your fist under your jaw and hold your mouth closed not all the way but dont let your jaw open all the way
Jason Davis thanks a TONNE my friend i will keep this in mind
It sounds crazy, but lotion made from marijuana extract is an almost instant cure for TMJ (yay for legalization in Oregon). It won't solve the underlying problem, but it will release a tense jaw almost immediately.
Zachary Sprunger And FYI, it won't get you high ;)
Hemp oil is marijuana oil. That's just the name they usually market it under. And lotion isn't the only thing they use it in. There's also hemp milk. I wanna say hemp is a strain of marijuana but I'm not sure
whammybar98 You're right about CBD, that's the needle in the haystack for sure. I was just making a generalization (THC=CBD) for the layman's understanding. They've got newish strains coming out of Israel that have a 70:1 ratio of CBD:THC, awesome for any chemo/cancer patients.
Leilabeth Ledford Hemp is just another word for marijuana. Our founding fathers were fond of this term for it; you'll see them using that term in their personal writing describing its many daily uses.
Erica Juxtapose Jones I like you, you have a very well rounded view of the Mary Jane debate. You've educated me in some very interesting areas, thank you.
I’m 16, and I’ve had tmj since I was 5. Mine is really bad, and my jaw has been locked for a year now. The pain is constant and unbearable, and I just wish it would go away! My dentist said that he was too afraid to try to deal with my tmj because he has never seen anyone with it this bad. Sadly, my insurance doesn’t cover the surgery that I need, so I’m going to have to stick with this for a while.
Hey! How are you doing now?
Im hoping to know how you’re doing now? I see you didn’t reply to the person that replied to you a year ago :(
Hello?
22 now
didn't expect Rhett and Link of all people to have a video on the exact problem I'm having right now
i was diagnosed with tmg and i have learned to cope with it but its SO FREAKIN ANNOYING
The pain and headaches from TMJ is so hard to live with,i almost feel like i cant remember stuff i listen to because i constantly Think of the pain when im in the class room. Im so shocked that science hasnt come further to Solve these problems.
I feel you. My tmj come and go but i get bad headaches and get dizzy
Try doing TMJ exercises. My favorite one is "Adam fields - TMJ exercises"
just went to the emergency room and they do nothing for tmj :-( sent me home and told me to do jaw exercises lol
Just punch your jaw. Punching solves everything.
IT MADE IT WORSE
really ... help me
Oxfooоord University Reveals: Quick Insomnia Cureee => twitter.com/489508fd9c635313b/status/804614583075733505 How to Cure TMJ Disоrder
I'm currently sitting in the ER and they gave me some valium. It made me giggle for a second and now I'm still in pain and just want to go home
Lived with TMJD for about a year. Had to get a special retainer, and I went to the chiropractor regularly... I couldn't open my mouth farther than an inch or so, and it was -locked-. The doctors said not to try to pop it open cause I might damage something, so I just had to continue to relax it and massage it all the time. For a year, it was -awful-. Thankfully, after a while, it relaxed enough that I didn't even have to pop it open! It was so sore, and it still gives me a little trouble now and then, but at least it's a lot better.
What massage
I went to the dentist at 12, my jaw kept locking the whole day. I’m now 18 and my TMJ has hurt ever since. I should probably go talk to someone about it 😭😂
Steph Payton do you know what caused it to stop hurting?
Am I the only one who always has had TMJ? I've always had a pop noise when I fully open my mouth, so its a bit different, but my dentist told me I had TMJ
How long have u had it for? I had mine for 8 months on Christmas day! But even before that my jaws would hurt and click
Nafisa Patel Hmm, ive had it for as long as I can remember;
I had it since im born but my dentist said it is a normal TMJ if you are born with that
I got it as soon as I got my braces off and it's been a massive pain since
My jaw gets locked every now and then because my jaw got misaligned. And I constantly have a popping noise when i bit. I might need jaw surgery. I feel your pain.
Link: there's not teeth flakings in my bed
Rhett: i dont think thats how it happens
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You guys are just plain awesome. Thanks for this video. I suffered a lot of stress while studying a few years ago and have since learnt that I was clenching my teeth at night, making my jaw muscles tight. My jaw has been clicking since.
Six years later I'm trying to re-train my jaw to relax with the aid of an appliance (like a mouth guard) I sleep with. Hopefully it'll be better/fixed in a few months!
How'd it go? I'm trying to fix the same thing right now.
I have TMJ, I think this explains why my face always feels weird and have a hard time eating. It feels like my jaw is broken in a million places every time I open my jaw.
Also, Frankenstein was the name of the scientist.... Victor Frankenstein. The monster (commonly referred to as Frankenstein) never had a name. The more you know.
This happened to me once. The dr gave me muscle relaxers and told me to be on them for 2 whole days. I woke up the third day and had not problems! Then I took up yoga to try and keep myself relaxed so it would never happen again. You aren't alone, Link!
does it happended again
Im diagnosed with pretty severe TMJ disorder. My jaw locks, clicks and pops constantly (I can do it on request lol), my jaw has popped out, etc. Its pretty bad. I get chronic migraines from this. I get at least one migraine a day from my TMJ. I hate it. I almost had to do a major surgery on my jaw (take my lower jaw off and put it back together) but thank god I didn't do it because it turns out theres only 50% 50% chance of it healing that way! (Big surprise right?)
It can usually be fixed with massage if you find a good therapist.
Thanks! Ill look into it.
I am a massage therapist, and I can tell you that massage can help. However, oftentimes, this disorder is caused by grinding your teeth, possibly in your sleep. In massage therapy, working on TMJ can be tricky because legally, working with TMJ starts to move into the area of dental issues, and a massage therapist can get into serious trouble for performing certain massage manipulations in certain places (such as in your mouth, which is the best place to massage to relieve TMJ disorder. Massage therapists generally can't do that because it is invasive). There are ways to perform self-care on yourself in order to help ease the symptoms of TMJ disorder. Either way, before going and getting help from a massage therapist, I would seek the help of a dentist. Bite guards are usually prescribed for these issues so that you can't grind your teeth in your sleep.
Something is causing this problem, and rather than treating the symptoms (the pain and migraines), you should treat the cause (probably repetitive stress caused from grinding your teeth).
Go to a sports store and pick up a gel mouth gaurd, the full coverage ones. Will keep your mouth slightly open at night and stop you from grinding your teeth
I appreciate your advice but for anyone with TMJ a mouthguard is NOT recommended. It will only make the problem worse. If anyone has problems with grinding their teeth to a severe level of wearing down the teeth (filing them down) then I would talk to a dentist about a mouth guard before using one. But otherwise, mouthguards only make TMJ problems much worse.
As a long term sufferer of TMJ I feel your pain Link.
Ugh yall do not understand the stuggle of waking up every. Single. Morning. With your jaw locked like u cant open it also... this is not tmj... tmj is a joint and in between the joint theres a little plate, sometimes that plate gets in the wrong position and it locks your jaw because its stuck there your muscle only Gets stiff because the stress... omg you do not want to force it open link!!! That could totally damage ur ligament permanently please do better research!!! Get that looked at link! Your ligament is probably damaged and thats why it still hurts a little bit!!!!
Mate, mine's been stuck for 3 weeks. I may just be like this for the rest of my life. lol
How are you now?
Same, I have no idea where it even came from
lol there goes kissing
When I was young, I fell asleep in the car with my mouth open. My brother put a purple pez in my mouth, and I started drooling purple. He screamed because he thought I was dying.
and 10 years later..you get your first reply on this comment.... Thats weird lol
I don't wanna be "that guy" but I feel obligated to say this. Frankenstein is the doctor. The monster is Frankenstein's monster. Technically, Link should have turned Rhett into a mad scientist....so yeah...
Iwas going to flip out over that. Glad I checked and saw you mentioned it first. How have there not been more people saying this?
I honestly don't know
Joshua Moyer Probably because it's either understood, or people have learned to let it go.
The monster's name is actually "Adam". Frustrating to fans, yes, but I think it is just one of those things that has grown to be accepted. :)
TalulaEllen In the book, he never had a name.
"You can't choke on macaroni, I tried." -Rhett 2012
I've had TMJ for about 17 months now and I've found an solution after all else has failed, surgery. Yay lucky everyone who gets rid of it so easily.
i have TMJ Disorder from an orthodontic appliance to fix my overbite. It is very serious my jaw pops and cracks ALL day! THANKS FOR MY TROUBLES ORTHO PEOPLE.
Guys, if you have TMJ pls change the video. Rhett and Link made me laugh so hard that it made my TMJ worse!
I've had my jaw lock open before; it's probably the most helpless feeling I've ever had. I put ice on the sides of my face though and then it relaxed and closed within about 10 mins.
Took 10min just to say stretch your mouth open.
ridiculous. Sat here tryna sort out my fucked up jaw to find out his jaw locked, once, an he forced it unlocked. Bollocks.
Ikr. I was just sitting here in pain waiting for some answer
LOL love the "yawning ferret" at the beginning... I realize it's probably a pun on the "jaw-movement" subject of the episode. Nice coincidence that the ferret yawns wide right when the girl says "Good Mythical Morning", like the pet just woke up. :D
I've had jaw issues my whole life, now that I'm in my 20's it's gotten worse. Just recently I started doing face yoga to help tighten my neck muscles... but ended up surprised when it actually got rid of my TMJ! Going to do it every morning now.
Holly Bear - wanna share that face yoga with us? Lol
If you have stared showing symptoms of TMD you need to treat it right away. I've had it for several years now and all my muscles are super tight on the affected side and as a result my eyelid is getting droopy. I can't breathe through my right nostril. I'm constantly trying to "pop" the pressure out. It's agonizing at times. It's not so much pain as discomfort to a maddening level.
Don't be me. Get help ASAP.
Scucci Mane droopy eyelid? Myasthenia Gravis maybe?
I doubt it. It may have more to do with Marcus Gunn Jaw Winking syndrome. Really my theory is the temporalis muscles along with all the other related facial muscles are pulling so tight it's making the eyelid slightly droop.
Some days the droop is not as bad some days it's worse and it seems to correlate with how my TMD is doing on that particular day.
Scucci Mane how can it be fixed? I have all that stuff too
Fix it with braces?
Whenever i open my mouth i feel the right side of my jaw pop. It occasionally locks up and I can't open it, anything i can do about it???
We need help!!!!!
+Yaboi Rolly i know right
Go to the hospital it won't stop
Gold_Love_Gaming
Hello my jaw locked up when I woke up and I've found the easiest way to un lock it is to tilt your head to the opposite side the the strain hold it there for 6 seconds do this a few times and then do it once more without using you neck muscles just your hand to push your head down. With a little bit of movement your jaw should un lock. I hope this helps
Lk Bandit DO you live in the US? Because I CANT GO TO THE HOSPITAL FOR A SMALL THING BECAUSE IF EXPENSIVE HEALTHCARE
I have tmj disorder and im only 12 :(
Fabulous Aaliyah me too and it's getting me scared than ever
me too I'm 13
Oh my goodness it just started today and it hurts so bad I'm desperately searching for help xD.
Your TMJ maybe related to how your teeth come together. You will need to see your dentist to get your bite evaluated. I am a dentist who treat TMJ dental related issues. You can call my office at 818-341-1345 so we can evaluate your bite. I am in Chatsworth, CA.
It's funny to just find other people who also have TMJ. It's nice to just relate with people, lolz
Ohhh. A few years ago my jaw cracked so much, and locked shut, and it was indeed really scary. Then i stumble across this. Makes sense!
I've had this before, used to happen to me when I was like in the 7th or 8th grade, it would be difficult for me to eat breakfast but as time passed, I got over that. Hasn't happened to me in a few years, hopefully I didn't just jinx myself.
I'm in 7th grade and I had this ever since 6th grade. Do you still have it?😂😭
I have this D: I'm in 7th grade and do you still have it?
ѕтαяяу Nope :) I'm sure your will go away, give it some time
Did you experience popping in your joints? It's been over a year for me and it's only gotten worse. :/
bagofcupcakes I don't really remember experiencing popping, it was always just locking up. You might have to google TMJ if it's still happening to you
I'm having TMJ problems right now. I noticed it after I was chewing some gum. My jaw won't close all the way and it hurts to eat. I've been looking up massages and exercises to alleviate the pain.
Theresa Shores AL
I used to have bad TMJ, about a year ago I got a night guard and have had no TMJ since!
Was it for upper teeth or lower 😊
I chewed gum to much
As a registered massage therapist, I was thankful that Rhett clarified that the term for the disorder was TMJD and not TMJ (that’s the joint)
Mine is so bad im 18 and they told me it looks like someone took a hammer to my right side and “if i was 80, we would just let you live with it” 😐😔
at one point with TMJ my right side of my jaw was so built up and locked for like 2 months and then one day it opened with a spontaneous CRACK.
I t w a s t h e b e s t f e e l i n g e v e r .
I laughed so hard when I heard link said " Thermo-Mandarin" :D
my hearing seems to be affected by tmj issues fml
OMB Vlogs lmao
Same here, its ridiculously annoying for everyday life
This doesn't cure TMJ, you just unlocked your jaw. Wached this to the end to find out nothin. Over 4k likes. I'm assuming 0 of you had TMJ.
Thank you so much guys. For years I have suffered with tmi and at the begging of this week my jaw locked on me and I was scared to no ends. Like you discribed and have been on a soft diet for almost a week now. Thank you for making me laugh I really needed to laugh. Thank you for having a positive attitude about dealing with tmj. I really appreciate it!
I got TMJ a few years ago. But it was from grinding my teeth, which I still do constantly because I'm OCD. But i went to my orthodontist and he wouldn't put braces on me until it was fixed. SoI went to my dentist and he told me that braces might cure the TMJ. So we told my orthodontist that we wanted braces anyway and I got them. I've had them over a year, and my TMJ is gone. but, like I said, I still grind my teeth. but that's a later kind if issue.
of*
how did they put your braces on when you mouth could only open a little bit
Thermo-mandarin joint. Yes Link that's exactly what it stands for....
I have to pop my jaw into place very time I wake up. Its is so annoying, I cant even take a nap without having this problem. Whats worse is that the type of TMJ I have is my jaw locks at about 1" open meaning my jaw could be dislocated. I would suggest seeing a dentist, I even have a meeting with a specialist and could need surgery. TMJ could be caused by stress, teeth grinding, overchewing (Gum can cause allot of problems), leaning on your jaw allot, sleeping on your face, yawning allot, essentially anything that can put stress on your jaw. Having this is one of the most frightening thing ever, I am constantly afraid of my jaw beginning to lock in public or if my jaw dislocates completely. It can also be very painful, whats more is that it is very annoying.
I would just sleep facing the ceiling. I honestly never really have problems anymore. If you sleep on your side it'll just be stuck when you wake up.
***** Glad to hear a success story! :)
The success of a sleeping position would really depend on the specifics of the person's TMD. If my jaw's acting up and I sleep on my back, my jaw kinda slips backwards in the joint and becomes so painful I can't sleep.
queenofcrows Is the only way to fix this like jaw surgery or those annoying bands that an orthodontist puts in your mouth? I can imagine that if your were punched in the jaw or hit there by something, you would probably be screwed right?
The “My Pillow” pillow helped my TMJ pain tremendously! The neck needs support in order for the attached jaw to heal.
i have been suffering with tmj for 5 years, im 13 years old. i have a amazing device im my ears, its taking all of my pain away and popping/locking. its called TMJ next generation. it changed my life
"I've put stuff in there before... while you were sleeping."
i suggest you to have it thoroughly checked out. if the jaw lock is caused by tmj derangement you have a big problem.
what else could cause the locking?
my jaw gets stuck on one side when I try to open it. weird feeling
OMG THAT FERRET IS SOOO CUTE!!!
His owner is adorably pretty, as well. :)
I have it a lot, I had a way of unlocking my jaw, and lately it's affecting my hearing but, I've found other exercises online which work so much better than what the dentist gave me
Legit crying when the stretch gave me relief thank you so much
I've got TMJ disfunction, but my jaw didn't lock up.
TMD can be scary at times, especially when your jaw seizes up like that.
And that 'pop' you get? Isn't the jawbone popping in and out. You have a disc in each TMJ (like the discs you have in your spine) which cushions the jaw joint, and the 'pop' is the disc itself sliding in/out of place. If it gets stuck in the wrong place (as mine has been for weeks now), you get a whole host of weird symptoms, including tinnitis, ears that feel clogged, pain in shoulder/arm/neck/across the face, electric shocks across the jawline, your teeth don't meet properly when you chew, and sometimes the jaw gets stuck shut or open.
It's ain't fun, and although Link managed to cure it himself, I wouldn't recommend anyone else follow suit without first doing a bunch of research themselves and talking to a doctor. If the disc is out of place, you could damage the disc permanently (requiring surgery that has a 50/50 success rate).
Have you ever gotten this cured? Can you recommend me anything?
idk if the girl in the beginning of the vid knows this, but, NORMALLY, you only scruff [grab by the skin of the neck] a ferret if it misbehaves.. that 'yawn' means the scruff is getting painful. but hey, whatever. On to the good stuff.
“You cannot choke on macaroni, I’ve tried”
Quote of the year.
I suffer from TMD as well. I have extreme Headaches, migraines, and jaw pain. It hurts so much and it is very debilitating. I have tried everything and nothing seems to help. You guys are awesome, though. Hope this helps others.
Did it heal?
Did anyone realize that at 7:00 Rhett said he tried to choke on macaroni...?
Me :my jaw hurts I think it's gonna fall off
Doctor: holds temples and ask me to open my mouth
Me: oh my gosh my lower face is going to fall off
Doctor: ahha I felt a pop u have TMJ
Me :wth is that ?
True story
I BEEN KNOWIN' CRICKET TWENNY SEVEN YEAR!
I'm watching this the day after jaw surgery 😂I love this so much
I chewed too much gum and my left jaw won't move so far as before, it's been like this for about 3 months
Massage all around your jaw, heating pad, and the exercises
"My right foot is swole up, is your right foot swole up?"
~Rhett
Frankenstein is the name of the doctor ! come on !
7:09 is rhett suicidal
+Nick Real the weirdest way to go out
+Kory Neff (epoillaKory) the best way to go out!
One time when I was a kid my dad's girlfriend made me macaroni and cheese. After partially eating a big spoonful I noticed a hair sticking out of my mouth. As I pulled on it I could feel it all the way down my throat dragging some macaroni and cheese up with it. Needless to say I gagged and have never really wanted macaroni and cheese again
My jaw was locked for three straight months the same way that Link's was. If I tilted my head sideways, I could open my mouth all the way for a few seconds. I made an appointment with a TMJ specialist but by the time it finally came around, my jaw had already unlocked. SO FRUSTRATING.
This is hardly a "cure" and not an appropriate way to title your video.
shut up lol
No Alex, you shut up
tmj is quite a painful awful experience to go through.. The guy on the left should just calm down with the unfunny jokes you haven't a clue how this feels!
Yeah, both of my jaws have been locked up for almost a year now. It's terrible. I can open my mouth, but not even close to all the way. Plus, one day I tried to do these jaw stretches, and it pulled my muscle in my left jaw. You know, any time you pull a muscle, it takes a long time to heal, and it's easy to pull it again. Anyways, when I yawn that muscle pulls again, and this horrible pain shoots up my face. It's awful. But, recently when I yawn, I've gotten into the habit of keeping my mouth relatively closed. So that muscle hasn't been pulled for a while. But yeah, TMJ is terrible. It's going to affect my major at some point (I want to be a speech language pathologist). Also, my mother won't let me tell my doctor about this disorder, and there's no way she'll ever be open to surgery. She says that she has TMJ, and she may, but mine is on a totally different scale. Eventually I'll start getting headaches every day, but luckily they haven't started.
Also just the pain in general is bad. You can't eat everything that you'd like to. You have to stop eating a meal at times because it's not worth the pain you feel in your jaw. Talking hurts sometimes too. Singing is no longer the same.
yea I been dealing with it for 5 years, my jaw feels soar 24/7 and I guarantee if his did, he wouldn't joke about it
it's a comedy talk show...
+Mikaela Argyrakis that sounds ery painful. It isn't nice at all. I can sympathise with you because the pain is so much.
my tmj is bad and this video made me happy and laugh thanks
I have TMJ and totally understand that panic when it locks up

My mom says you guys need to stop saying "went to the bathroom," and start saying, "entered" or "went into the bathroom." Yup. LOL.
