Hello again! It's nice to have you again my friends here. Before I gonna share something, allow me to say, Thank you to all of you here for sharing time with me, the experiences that made me comfortable and everything of course. Such a big pleasure for me guys. Again, I have a little inquiry but a really big help for me to have your answer from you guys about this little thing I got this days. One morning when I opened my eyes, as I was excited to see the views of the shoreline of eastern side of cebu, I was annoyed by the pain I felt in my left jaw when I tried to open my mouth. I was puzzled what's this thing why there's a little tenderness when I opened my mouth to its normal wide. Actually, I already have an experience about some kind of a lock jaw several years ago, more or less, college days or almost a decade ago when I opened my mouth as we normally experience it when we're already sleepy, we tend to open our mouth and raise our hands to do such a relaxing stretch that could feel us some sort of a comfort. But that night was kind of alarming because it's like that I couldn't close my mouth and it took for a second before I managed it and return to normal. It was painfully though, but eventually gone as I learned how to control in opening my mouth to do the relaxing thing. And if ever if it locked again, I could already manage it somehow by trying to relax my muscle in my jaw. That's how I thought. But this latest incident of mine is a bit different and I couldn't think how it started. The only thing I remembered the night before I took a sleep, I was eating Fish crackers and I've finished lots of it. I thought at first that this was merely not serious but it's already 2 days now, the pain is still there but only at times when I opened it to its ordinary wide and the pain is not really as painfull as hell. I bite and chew but not so hard and fast as before. I tried it now to be like in normal thing especially in taking my meal so that it'll be back to its normal condition. I know you guys you can give me some inputs and advises about this matter. Thank you.
