Temporomandibular arthritis should be referred to as TMJ and can usually be seen in dentistry or, if the subspecialty is more subtle, in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Temporomandibular arthritis is mainly caused by lesions in the tissues of the temporomandibular joint, which will produce more obvious symptoms of temporomandibular joint pain, aggravated by chewing, and may also produce reactions such as swelling of the face, popping of the joints, limitation of opening the mouth, and dyskinesia of the jaw. If TMJ is already present, conservative or surgical treatments are generally available, such as the use of pain medications such as ibuprofen under doctor’s supervision, or the option of arthrocentesis and localized physical therapy, which can effectively alleviate the symptoms of TMJ. During the treatment period, you need to see a doctor regularly for review, and you also need to take more rest and massage and apply hot compresses appropriately.
