The specific injury area I want to address today is that involving the neck. Neck injuries are actually very common in BJJ. We are always getting put in positions that put a strain on the neck, whether itâs a headlock, we are inverted, or even getting stacked. That part of our body takes a beating in this sport. Now obviously the neck is a vital anatomic junction.
Pain is TMJ disorderâs most common symptom. People with TMJ may experience severe pain and discomfort in the face, jaw joint, neck and shoulders while at rest or during common movements such as talking, chewing and yawning. This pain may be severe, can be either intermittent or constant, and may last for many years.
