Does anyone have TMJ flareups from thier anxiety? My jaw is clicking in my ear and tight around the back of my head. Of course stress and anxiety flares it up.

I can feel my checking behavior trying to flare up. I forgot that your tmj can aggravate your sinus the same side of my flared up tmj the sinus on that side is draining so of course I am thinking covid. Which is making me double check my taste.

My wife has TMJ and was prescribed a mouth guard which has helped her quite a bit.

I use the dip and bite kind you can get from Walmart. You pop it in boiling water for 10 seconds and then bite to mold it. It helps a little I clench so hard. The other day I fell asleep with my pinkie in my mouth 2 things happened. I jumped up out of my sleep from the pain of the bite and the teeth marks where there for half of the next day lol
