I feel pain on right side while eating and not able to put pressure on right side teeth. I consulted dentist and oral surgeon. They have diagnosed TMD OR TMJ problem. They have advised one exercise for jaw muscles. Please inform cause and precautions and treatment. Please suggest name of any muscle relaxant I should take for this.

Follow the instructions given by oral surgeon. He/ she must have evaluated your problem thoroughly before prescribing exercise and medicines. TMJ related problem is not easy to handle and multiple diagnosis or prescription may result in failure to achieve the best. You can take prescribed painkillers/ corticosteriods and muscle relaxants based on symptoms which your dentist know best.

Take flexon-MR tablet twice daily as a muscle relaxant, get a night-guard made from dentist, also avoid chewing hard food from the affected side and do moist heat fomentation with a towel dipped in warm water and placing over the jaw joint about 4-5 times daily. Apply piroxicam gel twice daily over jaw joint.
