I'm guessing my jaw joint is sore because something (cartilage? disc?) has become fully misaligned/dislodged. Fun.

Posted by Beryllium (aka grayman) Nov 14 '23, 20:05

Out of my three major painful episodes this year (the first two of which each took months to recover from), this new one is the second-most painful. Hopefully the dentist can figure out the cause tomorrow & deliver a quick fix.

I'm getting really fucking sick of "months of recuperation" being the only recourse.

is this a sliping or clicking jaw thing? -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 14, 20:32 3

    - Unknown. But my teeth have never been properly aligned, so my bite was already not great. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 14, 20:38
