Hi, ive had tmj for a few months now. It was really painful at first, although now is much better. Definately bareable anyway.
Theres still lots of popping and crunching noises on the left side when I open my mouth.

I have a small lump just ahead of my right ear where the tmj is and now also have tenderness right on the bottom corner of my jaw, I think thats the mandible.

These werent present in the first months of my symptoms.

Does anyone else have this, or know why?

Thanks
