Q: Tmj Without Jaw Pain....but Other Side Affects?

New User, Becoming EHEALTHy
Hi everyone,i have tmj ...My jaws click,sometime lock up a little....But my jaws dont really hurt(unless open for extended perionds of time....Dentist)

the side that clicks more is the side I get headaches (usually behind the eye) and neck stiffness

i also teach guitar and the same side (right side) is held at a higher position for much of the day.

Are there alot of people who dont get jaw pain but get headaches and other symptoms?

Thanks

Hey
while you may not feel pain in the jaw your jaw could be referring the pain to other parts of the body. you may have tooth aches earaches etc and nnot actually have that problem. when you play guitar try to keep your neck straight so that there is no strain on your neck. Ive been doing this a long time. if you need me you feel free to contact me. Laughing
