Treating TMJ?


Recommended Posts

My son and I have developed TMJ. Weird? Jaw clicks, hurts, teeth grinding in sleep I can't believe it. Ears hurt. How do you get rid of this? Is this a lyme symptom?

 

Anyone have this condition pop up before with their lyme treatment?

 

Thanks in advance.

I have but mine is from stress. Now it has become a habit. I usually have to wear a mouth guard. I only wear it at night. My son 15 lyme/bart has had grinding in his sleep during his illness. Someone once told me they heard it can be from parasites. So definitely could be from this disease I think.

I believe you but its mind boggling how parasites can do all this? Currently taking Flagyl daily. I bet your right because it got bad on day 10 of Flagyl, all other syptoms diminishing but TMJ is new. Found a chiropractor today that says she can help we are seeing her next week. Hope she right.

 

Thank you.

I've heard the grinding is caused by parasites. Regarding the TMJ, it is a minority lyme symptom. The spirochetes love to eat the joint tissue, and the TMJ is a joint, so you might consider it joint pain in that sense. The infections will enjoy any place your body is weak, so perhaps if your jaw is a little out of alignment, then the spirochetes are more likely to set up shop there and cause more problems.
