Overview. 1  A slipped disc in your jaw can cause painful temporomandibular joint (TMJ)-related problems, including a âpoppingâ noise that originates inside the jaw joint. 2  Friction is a massage exercise. 3  The jaw stretching exercise may relieve tension in tight jaw muscles forced out of position.
For the past few months,my jaw literally pops out of place on the left side of my face. It hurts, and I can't open my mouth. I've gotten quite good at popping it back into place though. Last night was particularly bad, because it popped out more than once. This morning I'm fine again, but my head aches from it.
