Hello all! I am writing to find out if anyone may have some info on Trismus and how to go about getting rid of it. I had developed the side effects about 2 months after my last rad. appointment. It started out very bad where I could not open my mouth at all. Then it started opening about 1", just enough to fit one finger in and get some food in. I have been doing my mouth exercises and using tongue depressors to place between my molars in the back to in a way jack open my mouth. I have just begun taking cyclobenzaprine a muscle relaxer 3x daily. I am hoping this will work. Please share any input you may have on this medication, or any other suggestions. Also I was wondering if it would be ok to take tylenol with this medication. Please keep in mind that I cannot afford things such as the Thera-Bite system or things such as that. Would like to hear your stories and suggestions on this matter.

Thank you.
