I had a rear molar worked on 2 weeks ago, and now I can't open my jaw enough to place anything larger that my pincky finger into it. Went to the oral surgeon yesterday, he told me I had trismus, caused by a spasm in my muscle of the jaw due to the needle from the novacain. His suggestion to increase how far my mouth will open, start with 7 tongue depressors, insert between my teeth, and add a new one everyday until I can get 27 in there.
The possible causes of transverse myelitis can be quite varied. Transverse myelitis may occur in isolation or in the setting of another illness. Idiopathic transverse myelitis is assumed to be a result of abnormal and excessive activation of an immune response against the spinal cord that results in inflammation and tissue damage. TM often develops in the setting of viral and bacterial infections, especially those which may be associated with a rash (e.g., rubeola, varicella, variola, rubella, influenza, and mumps).
