Rib/abdominal pain a TMJ symptom? Posted: 05-01-08 11:39am
i have this horrible pain in my upper
right ribs today. In the past it was in my
left upper rib. Can tmj cause this to
happen. I also have my stomach muscles
twitch at times. I feel like my whole rib
cage is misaligned.
I'm going to a chiro today but want to
know if this is a symptom of my TMJ?
Can it travel that far?

the whole body is connected so im sure
that it effects it in someway. however i
dont think that this is directly from the
tmj---you are probably just out of
alignment and need an adjustment

Hello, i'm cindy. I have had some
experience with the rib thing. Yes it can.
Like dyan said everything Is so connected,
the jaw-the neck-the shoulders-upperback
and ribs. My ribs will actually sort of
pop out of alignment, and i can feel it,
and my chiropracter will put it back. Must
be connected. Ribs CAN be misaligned. Its
easy to get fixed by a chiro, and it
doesnt really hurt. hope that helps. See
your NOT imagining it!!! cindy
