I am so so glad to read all of this, well not GLAD, you know what I mean. My left side is so swollen right now. It kind of feels hot to the touch too. And it isn't the side that I had the most work done on. Go figure. I was just about to post this question when I read all of these. I was thinking it is because I am trying so hard to get the mouth to open that I may have just over worked it since it never gets any movement. I still haven't recieved any word about the therabite or the dynsaplint. Though I have contacted both. I sure could use one of them...I wish there was a place here I would already have it. Thanks for the answers....Miss Vicki
