Could it Be TMJ? My Back Hurts

Nubax Back Pain Review

Fascia is a type of connective tissue that covers nearly the entire inside of the body. It binds together muscles, organs, and other tissue in addition to contributing to the structural integrity (the shape) of the body. For exercisers, the type fascia that is the most important is the fascia that covers and binds together the muscles. This type of fascia is sometimes referred to as deep fascia. You can think of deep fascia as the skin of your muscles.

Fascia, like all connective tissue, grows in response to stress. If you prefer a certain posture, the resulting stress on the muscle, bone, and other soft tissue will eventually result in the growth of fascia to help the other tissues cope with the demand of holding a new posture. For example, if you happen to sit slouched over at your computer 8 hours a day while at work, eventually fascia will grow to help support this body posture, making it much easier for you to carry your caveman-like computer posture with you for whatever other activities you may engage in.

The nervous system of the human body consists of two parts. The voluntary nervous system is the one you control with your brain. If you want to throw a ball, all you do is think about moving your arm and the necessary muscles work in a coordinated fashion to make it happen. The involuntary nervous system is the part that controls everything else. Most people are aware that it controls things such as your heartbeat, breathing, and digestion, but it also controls all the muscles you don’t think about. When you raise your arm to throw a ball, the muscles on the other side of your body also contract to keep you in balance. You don’t have to think about it; it just happens.

The main goal of the involuntary nervous system is to keep you alive. This requires placing more importance on certain areas of the body than others. If you fall down, your hands automatically go out to protect your head from hitting the ground. Better to have a broken arm or wrist than a brain injury. Likewise, if you have a splinter in your left foot your body automatically places more weight on your right foot. If you don’t remove the splinter, eventually your right foot would start to hurt because it is overcompensating for the injured foot.

Memory foam mattresses and toppers are frequently recommended by doctors due to their unique ability to relieve the pressure created by your weight which often leads to chronic pain, and the promotion of blood flow throughout your body will allow you to achieve a better night’s sleep. Mattresses made from this material are firm enough to keep your body supported, but soft enough to be completely comfortable.

Both latex and memory foam mattresses are good choices for shared sleeping, especially if one person tosses and turns more than the other, because they isolate motion. Bedding made from this visco-elastic material is effective for anyone whether he is a side sleeper or one who sleeps on his back or stomach.

A dentist trained in TMD treatment that relieves the stress on the jaw joints has the potential to relieve most if not all of the above symptoms. If the symptoms have been long standing, however, other health care providers such as chiropractors, osteopathic physicians, physical therapists, and massage therapists may be needed for complete relief. And in certain cases, the “TMD symptoms” may not be due to the jaw joints at all. Back and neck disorders can also cause the same symptoms as TMD. In these cases, TMD treatment will be of limited benefit and your dentist may be able to refer you to the appropriate health care provider.

If you suffer from any of the symptoms listed in this article, it may be worth your while to have your dentist perform a TMD screening. I speak from personal experience; I suffered from lower back pain and numbness in the fingers for many years, potentially a career ending condition for a dentist. I never believed I had TMD because my jaw joints never hurt. With the proper diagnosis and treatment of my TMD, however, I have now been pain free for over two years, and continue to practice dentistry with no numbness in my fingers
