Jaw popping

2017-09-17 05:32:46
My jaw kinda gets stuck as soon as I try to close my mout or eat something, it then makes this really weird sobs as I try to open my mouth and if I keep opening it with my hands or with my mouth is pops and it hurts a little. Is this normal? It comes in periods at a time, sometimes it happens just once a day and like right now it's nonstop for about an hour every time I close my mouth

All These are signs of Temporomandibular disorder. A proper diagnosis as to what is the underlying problem is necessary. Visit a dentist as soon as possible.
