Resolve TMJ: If you have TMJ, resolve that issue: go to your dentist and get a night guard, possible need some type or physiotherapy and / or muscle relaxer medication and treatment.

TMJ: If you have TMD/TMJ, see a local dentist who can properly evaluate you & discuss treatment to alleviate the symptoms. Dentists who truly understand and can treat these individuals other than simply making a night guard are few and far between, so it might take some research to find one. Other than that, use warm compresses to the area and take Advil, Motrin, or Aleve if you can.
