Brian,
Excellent information you shared about preventing Trismus. I was not full aware of this at the time of my radiation and thus have Trismus. I also add to be very careful about when you end the daily exercise as the healing time frame is different for all of us. Be on the safe side and do the excercises for several months. It is hard to tell when one is healed.
