little nude collection! and i guess iāll just give a little update here for yāall on how iām doing! you can read it or just enjoy the nudes :p so i started physical therapy last week. iāve done two sessions so far, and iām currently scheduled for 12. theyāve given me some exercises to do, which will hopefully help, and it seems like we have actually figured out what the problem is! (tho that doesnāt make it easy to fix lol). My left jaw joint has become hyper mobile due to a displaced joint disk, and the right side has become incredibly tight and overworked to try and compensate for the other side. The nerve pain iāve had is coming from muscles being pinched due to the misplaced disk (we think, this is the part weāre least clear on. my physical therapist said sheās never seen nerve pain like mine š¬). So the current treatment route is to relax the overactive muscles, retrain my jaw movement, and hopefully get my teeth lining up again so the muscles on the left can activate fully and tighten up again. Even tho iām still in pain, itās nice to have someone who actually listened to me and seems to know what theyāre doing lol every other oral specialist just kept saying āwell you must be clenching in your sleep, cuz thatās what usually causes TMJā and i just KNEW it wasnāt because i had so many unrelated symptoms. One doctor i saw, after seeing me for the second time and having my explain exactly what i told her the first time said āoh, that sounds like nerve painā and i was like YEAH NO SHIT THATS WHAT I TOLD YOU WEEKS AGO!! okay anyway, so thatās whatās going on with meeeee. I hope yāall are doing well and i miss hanging out with you on stream!! Hopefully iāll be able to get back to it in the next couple months :) thanks for reading if you got this far, ily
