Locked Jaw | |Trismus
There are 4 main ways to help manage trismus:
* Massage (gently rub) your jaw muscles.
* Exercise your jaw muscles.
* Keep good posture.
* Keep good oral hygiene.
A) Massage your jaw muscles
Place your index (pointer) and middle finger on your cheekbone. Keeping your lips together, relax your jaw (don’t clench your teeth).
Run your fingers down over your masseter muscle, which ends at your bottom jaw.
As you move your fingers, find areas that feel tender or tight.
**Massage these areas with your fingers in a circular motion for 30 seconds. Do this 2 to 3 times every day.**
B) Exercise your jaw muscles
Follow these tips when doing your exercises.
* It may be helpful to use a timer or clock to make sure you hold the stretches long enough.
* Breathe normally. Do not hold your breath during the exercises.

* Watch your movements in a mirror to make sure you’re doing them correctly.
