I had only upper jaw surgery, yet had aches in my jaw muscles for some months after surgery. It also took some time for the mouth to regain its opening range.
Thanks Plosko. Yeah I guess I just wasn't expecting to still feel kind of s**tty like this after everywhere else in my mouth feels relatively fine.
I did something really dumb and went to a concert and stayed out partying all night and then fell sick so I'm just now super super depressed about all this lol.
And then I'm kind of also sort of afraid cause I'm realizing out of all of us who have had jaw surgery there is no single more or less happy and satisfied person. And that's the reality.
