Answers:
That happened to me exactly, very recently too. I went to the doctor and he recommended biting down hard on a stick for like five minutes a day. (It losens the muscles, because its more a muscle problem than a bone problem) I've been a bit slack so my jaw still locks.
If it keeps going, sleep on the opposite side that it locks on and it won't lock. cos i found that it locks when its relaxed.
Another thing, don't panic, if you move it around to much it really starts to hurt, best thing to do is just relax and waits till it pops back.Health Question & Answer
