I had TMJ problems recently, my jaw seized up to the point where I had to start eating with a teaspoon.
Went to see the dentist, they gave me a jaw x-ray to make sure the joints were ok, and gave me some exercises to do. I had to do them 6 times a day for a month before I started to notice much difference, but jaw is basically good as new now.
Apparently it's a fairly common problem. But that doesn't make people laugh less when you have to explain that you've strained your jaw muscles.

My jaws been clicking as long as I can remember, it even clicks when I eat. It does start to hurt after a while, but I cant say it bothers me. Hope it doesnt turn into what you guys have, ouch!

Don't try and relocate something yourself. I made that mistake.

I was away on tour, and this was the last night before we were to go skiing. I was fooling around playing football with some friends, and I slipped up and dislocated my kneecap. Could feel it down on my shin, it wasn't nice. So anyway, I thought, damnit! I want to go skiing tomorrow! So I thought, well the longer it's dislocated the more painful it will be tomorrow when I go skiing, so I'll just pop it back in.

Grabbed the kneecap, pushed it back to where it's supposed to be. Bad idea. The kneecap sort of slipped up over the top of some bones, and smashed into my thigh-bone, which broke it (all the muscles and tendons were under high tension). Spent some time in hospital, they cut all the tendons around the knee, then took the whole kneecap of my leg, pinned it back together, put it back into my leg, and stitched it up. Was on crutches for a long time, not just due to the kneecap, but the fact they had to cut all my tendons in my knee to get the kneecap out. Still can't run very well today, and occasionally I'll have excruciating pain from it if I stand on it wrong. Have a lovely scar too, a big zipper mark right up the front of my knee and leg, about as wide as my hand and thumb.

Go and see a Doctor, for god's sake PF! ^_^

Well after reading some of your horror stories lol I think I might go see a Dr... don't think it will be this week...

The pain isn't overbearing... its just occassional and when it happens... only last a few seconds...

But thanks for all the advise and stories
