When you are having a really big yawn and feel the bottom of your mouth tense up. Those are the absolute worst cramps. Especially when you're with someone else who thinks you're choking or having a seizure or something. And you can't tell them it's fine and it's just a cramp, since you can't open your mouth.
I am young, I got my first one a bit ago and I was like wtf, did I break something.
I get these weekly while doing nothing. It's a side effect of neck radiation cancer treatment. First time was painful as hell. Now I have learned to just sit in it and chill and it passes quicker that way
The fucking worst! I find throwing my head back like I'm trying to break my own neck usually fixes the issue
Genuinely this is something you should see a doctor about. A calf cramp once in a while doesn't say that much about underlying pathology but if your jaw is cramping to that extent you should talk to someone. There are treatments for TMJ disfunction.
