I am a little confused. I was doing jaw exercises everyday then when I went to my ENT claiming of pain he told me not to do that because it will make my jaw worst. So I stopped and yes the pain has decreased. I also have the 2 fingers but have 3 fingers with my teeth out. LOL Boy do I miss biting into a hot dog so now I just cut it up in little bites but it's just not the same. I think I may want to question my ENT a little.
