Hi all,
I was wondering if there are any out there that have TMJ, and if you could tell me how it affects your playing if you do have it. And also what you have done about it. i have a slight case of TMJ, which is where there is a problem with the joint where the mandible. Most of the time there is popping whenever I chew, but not really pain. If I chew for a while then my jaw will get tired. It seems like sometimes it causes my mouth to get tired when I play. Just wondering if any out there could give me any insight into this.
Thanks,
Ross
