Muscle inflammation
Hi people. A few months ago I got a muscle inflammation in my right jaw muscles but it only lasted for a week. My dentist told me I got it because of stress, since stress makes me grind my teeth in my sleep. To help me, I got a latex strip to keep in my mouth when I sleep. I don’t know if it helps, but I have a new muscle inflammation… in my left jaw muscle. This time it’s worse. I’ve called my dentist, going there this thursday. I also called my doctor but they all say the same thing: There’s nothing I can do. Woho. Painkillers works. For a while. The whole situation is a bit annoying. Since my mucles are inflammated they can’t stretch so I can only open my mouth a centimetre or so. That’s not alot. I can barely eat. Breakfast takes an hour. I’m having problems conctrating because of this since it hurts. Constantly. Quite alot. But I just felt like I had to rest yesterday so no comic. Blah. Hope it gets better T_T
UPDATE: The inflammation was caused by a wisdom tooth livin la vida loca or something. The dentist tried to clean it up yesterday but couldn’t. Today he tried the same thing with a syringe. Gawd it hurt. All of a sudden I feel this liquid in my mouth and when I get to rinse there’s alot of blood and pus. Tasted.. bad -_- and he exlpained he had found the infected area. Now it hurts alot, and I got the syringe with me. He wants me to do the same thing he did. .. makes me scared D: Friggin wisdom tooth!
Cheers.

Oh dear God! That’s horrible! I had that infection too, where it hurt like hell and I couldn’t open my mouth. I was in the hospital on an antibiotic drip for four days. About a month after that I had all four of my wisdom teeth taken out. It didn’t break in my mouth, though; ew! That must have made it a lot worse! :(
Needles! I hate them! Good luck with that! ^^;
