    I think I have TMJ Syndrome

    It's this jaw disorder where the muscles of your jaw become over tightened or are easily aggitated. Either way, it hurts to chew.

    My jaw is officially made of a fragile crystalline material.

          Yeah, I went to the dentist, and it was more or less her telling me that there is nothing really to worry about, except for some obvious pain and swelling that will persist. Advil or prescription drug was her cure, so I went with Advil.

          So far I haven't been hit with a punch that has hurt too bad, but maybe that's because the mouthguard is helping me since I bite down hard and that causes the entire jaw to clench up. I've been tapped on the jaw when relaxed and it kills.


          I'm fairly sure the reason I got the condition was when the dentist fixed a chip in my front teeth I had for a while, and it kinda made me adjust my bite/cross bite. Either way, it was a neccesary fix.

          Oh well, I guess maybe this will just make me focus on working and respecting defense more than ever.

                The secret to a good defense is a good offense
