New mouthgaurd for tmj and ear clog

Small something in there, maybe a pimple popped inside along the skin but in there and it has drained my friend said can see a flat ooen sore? Maybe its inflammed in there? hve bloodwork on sat at the dr maybe he can dind time to look in my ear,

Yes great idea looking at your ear also may be a cold or connected to pressure from weather. 

Yes it messes up the ears awful! Cloggs them, tinnitus. I hate it. And it takes a while even with the mouthgaurd to calm down,i have had it before. It just makes me feel terrible. The eustatian tubes get pushed from the over exterted jaw muscles.

Good luck.if you dont have anxiety too it does make you get it because of the discomfort. I havent done the botox though because my specialist has tmj as well and didnt feel it was a good idea although other people request it. It lightly paralyzes the muscles. Doesnt sound like something i could handle haha, its weird im not under stress either, just some very bad habit my body likes to clench.

I am a clencher from way back. haha. But I have never gotten TMJ from it. And I can not keep a mouth guard in my mouth. I've tried all kinds. And of course I'm under a lot of stress right now. And I am so mad at my dentist that I had an appointment with because he cancelled on me two days before our appointment. So now I have to wait another week while I'm in pain. I looked around for another dentist and there is only one other and he is booked solid for even longer. I hope his work is good because him cancelling on me really bites. Hahaha get the pun!

Omg this mess is making spasm in my ear at times. Mycoclus something from the jaw. I did find the same thing in another site but i cant seem to,properly register for it so i just read thru it.  I was very stressed because ten days ago i awoke with this dry eye syndrome and i cant even make tears so ive been clenching away im sure asleep poorly coping with that niw causing this. I would be a lot calmer of doctors where more proactive. They dont fully explain much and send me on my way. And they really dont always know what to do. And im the one in this body trying to guess who to see. Very difficult. My gp tends to say i dont know thats not my feild and the ent says im not sure i do ears, and yes ear is effected but younhave the jaw and the maxiallary surgeon is like thats so awful im sure it will calm down it can get bad and they dont know eye stuff. Wow that was a mouthful. So bottom line is im anxious iver all this and it is frustrating and a bit scary. No one told ke i needed to go to medical school to be my own keeper. Mhm

you meed to see a orafascial dentist. Or a maxillary surgeon. A regular dentist isnt so good to help you at all. Although im seeing a maxillary surgeon and well still issues. I was good for ten years  with them though. This is tmj 20 years after diagnosed.anyway, for splints  They make different kinds. The soft splint for lower teeth would stay in place. I dont know which you use. And they do botox, which inthink is extreme that paralyzes  the muscle enough that you can clench, some will go overboard and redo your mouth and whiskt they do all that im sure the tmj would sky rocket. I wish i knew how to calm it but obviously i dont  because mine a bit angry in there now. Its stress related but also physical anatomy mixed together. My husband grinfs his teeth away..he recently got caps and he gets nothing, no tmj, no pains hes all good. So i didnt get so lucky like that. 

They just need to have a place that cares for the whole person. Theynused too. It was a hospital but here i live they are trauma centers and that wont do much for me. 

 

I don't know if it's true but I've been told internist are good for caring for the whole person. Personally I have a wonderful GP. If I were to complain it's just that he refers me to specialist too much. But if your GP is saying he doesn't know and is not referring you to the proper specialist then it may be time for you to look for a new doctor because he's not doing his job. He is the one who should be looking out for your total care. He is the director of your health. All information about your health should go through him. When one specialist has used all of his knowledge then you go back to your GP and he suggest another avenue to take. Good luck on all of this I know how frustrating it can be.

Thank you i completely agree. I would love a gp who was more complete. Hard to find here. My friend has one who really thinks things through and helps her. Not all doctors stink but theres a good percentage that are lazier and it can make or break the patient at some point. I have been contemplating going to a hospital just so costly. I have never done that except to give birth or get stitches. But at least maybe theyd guide me. Cant go today we are in a blizzard though. Ear spasms thump twitch thing is maddening. I was already nervous that i suddenly developed dry eye syndrome. Tmj wouldnt effect the eyes. My ent, although well schooled tends to go with allow the body to heal itself theory. Thats what he said with the eustatian tube dysfunction after i had the flu in december. 

I very much appreciate your replies. Thank you very much for taking out your time to help me. It is frustrating. Google seems to think all doctors are very prudent and diagnosticians lol.

I have issues with the fish oils i have tried. I have health issues aside from this, im seeing a rhumatoid dr tomorrow to rule out some auto immune thing. The dry eyes waxes and wanes. I think too many issues going on at once and i set off tmjd kinda badly, i just want it all to go away now and my jaw and such to be normal again.  Frustrating

I start tmjd pt wednesday.

I'm with you. It really sucks when you have multiple health problems and then it gets difficult to treat one because of the other and so on it goes. I'm sorry your having this issue.
