Hi this seems to be the best forum that i have found so far with people having what i seem to also be having, in november i was chatting to my husband in bed i turned over and crack went my jaw then it locked all twisted up and then it seemed to go back into place > i went to accident and emergency and was sent home saying that this was not disclcoated now and go home. It has now been 6 weeks and although alot of the swelling has now gone down my bite feels odd and i have limied mouth opening i have been only drinking milkshakes and cup a soups for this period of time. There seems to be alot of crunching going on when i move my jaw on the opposite side to where it originally hurt, i dont really have any pain now just discomfort but will i ever get this opening of my mouth back, my teeth also when it happend felt really weird like when you sprain an ankle and try to walk on it, i cannot bite into anything or chew or anything, i cant sleep as i worry my jaw will slip out again, i know with a dislocated that it can re occur but is there normally a time limit if it is going to happen or something, i been in tears now for days i dont know if i am coming or going
