fam I’ve been having bad TMJ pain to the point where I’m wearing my NTI splint during the day and using compresses on my masseter yes I take magnesium yes I am stressed no I will not meditate but ...
Are you drinking lots of coffee?
Cutting back on that may help. The one person I know who had TMJ felt relief after a few days of not having caffeine. After that they still drink coffee here and there but mostly stick to a single serving of matcha.
I personally found reducing caffeine helps with all sorts of things: better sleep, lower feelings of stress, feeling calmer, etc.
