Hello everyone,

I have this annoying sound on my TM Joints while I'm swallowing, like when I'm stepping on dry leaves. It drives me nuts, especially in the silence. I'd appreciate any ideas why I have this sound.

Thanks

Janis,

I have this too. Along with other symptoms. Mine has gotten worse, not better. My splint doesn't seem to be helping at all.

Good luck to you. I just wanted you to know you weren't alone. I know this is not "normal" as it has never been loud like this.

Take care,
TC
