For my tmj we tried a trigger point injections for the fourth time. This time, we tried it with a stronger local anesthetic called Bupivicaine. The procedure took four pokes in total inside and out of my mouth in my masseter muscle. It definitely stung more, and i feel like I can’t open my mouth as much as I used to. Thank god it’s temporary, but I think this isn’t the route for me. Btw I have a high pain tolerance, but my tmj has been going on for 3 yrs and I can’t drive or go to college until I’m treated.
