Physio Mend by Dr. Malika Mir(PT). Physiotherapy Clinic

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders affect the joints and muscles involved in moving the jaw. Symptoms may include jaw pain or stiffness, clicking or popping sounds, difficulty opening the mouth, headaches, facial discomfort, or pain while chewing. TMJ symptoms can have several possible causes, including jaw muscle tension, injury, teeth grinding, or changes affecting the jaw joint. A proper assessment is important because clicking sounds alone do not always indicate a disorder requiring treatment. MSK physiotherapy may support people with suitable TMJ-related concerns. A physiotherapist may assess jaw movement, muscle tension, posture, neck movement, and daily habits before recommending an individualised plan. Treatment may include gentle exercises, movement guidance, relaxation strategies, and advice on habits that may aggravate symptoms. Avoid forcing the jaw or attempting aggressive exercises without professional guidance. Persistent pain, significant difficulty opening the mouth, swelling, or symptoms following an injury should be medically assessed. For individuals seeking TMJ physiotherapy and MSK physiotherapy in Mumbai, Physio Mend by Dr. Malika Mir (PT) provides patient-focused physiotherapy care based on individual needs. Early professional assessment can help identify contributing factors and guide appropriate management for comfortable jaw movement and daily function. 7 days ago Call now
