Infant next to TMJ??
My 5 /12 month old daughter's gone side of her jaw started cracking when she would uncap and close her mouth 2 days ago.
It sounds like TMJ. She's have no injury to it and it's not swollen.It's not bothering her and she's actually hole and closing her mouth several times in a row to hear the click.
Is this adjectives or even possible?
What is the treatment and outcome?
I can't get her into the doctor for 4 more days.
Answer: Yes, it's possible. I recommend that you hold her checked out by a chiropractor who specializes in pediatric. They enjoy a very serene way of correcting it, no thrusting, merely steady soft pressure in a convinced spot.
I'm not sure that it's very adjectives, but it can happen within infants. Try not to worry, but if it seem like it's cause her pain, you should probably procure her to urgent care. She should be fine until you gain her into the doctor. Good luck to you and your daughter!
