Please Please help! Easy 10 points!!?!


Question: Please Please help! Easy 10 points!!!?
my jaw is really tight on one side
i can't open my mouth to far because the right side of my jaw pops and its really uncomfortable
i know it's probably from chewing gum alot (which i'm going to stop) and having a lot of dental work done (braces, 6 teeth pulled, palette widener, etc!.) and i've always had this problem, so its not like its anything new, its just more uncomfortable then usual tonight, is there anything i can do to loosen it a little!? Will heat or cold help!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I have the same problem sometimes, and what i always do is put pressure on the joint in your jaw that's uncomfortable and just work it a little!. If you do it right, you should be fine!. It works for me every time!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

soft food, heat, massage, anti-inflammatory meds (ibuprofen or naproxen), then gently force the jaw to open a little wider with a spoonWww@Answer-Health@Com

no cold!! It will tighten your muscles, and it will hurt like hell! It sounds like your jaw is locked!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
