Hi,Babycakes,
Thanks for query,
You have got Sublaxation of your Temporo mandibular joint.
There is no remedy,
Avoid wide opening of mouth,yawning,chewing hard stuff.
Keep your thumb on tm joint while opening mouth or yawning.
Do not sleep on affected side.
Consult orthopedic surgeon,though very little can be done.
Ok and bye.
