Well this was some false advertisement! I dislocated my jaw according to your comment, but I'm instead in incredible pain and I can't get my jaw back in place ;_;
I dislocated my jaw playing hockey 10 or so years ago. My mum was a physiotherapist all her life and happened to be in the bleachers. She ran to the bench and asked, "Do you want to finish the game or go to the hospital?"
I said, "Finish the game ?"
She wrapped her thumb in a towel, grabbed my lower jaw by my back teeth, and pulled it down and back into place. The relief was instant. I finished the game and ended up with barely any bruising, I miss that little lady every day 😂
Again... it's still just going over your head. The point of the comment was to get people to try and spell out how it sounded to say that while not being able to move your jaw. Yes, I understand where most sounds come from when we are using our mouths to speak. Yes, I understand you would be able to understand him. But Jesus Christ, lighten up. Just because you don't find something funny, doesn't mean other people don't.
My son dislocated his second toe chasing his niece. He was 17. I asked if he wanted to go to the ER. He said no. You want it fixed ? Yes. Said I'm gonna count to 3.
Take one of those triangle shaped erasers you put on the end of a pencil in the back of your mouth on the side that’s dislocated. Then push on your chin. It’ll hurt less the faster you do it.
All these comments reminded me of a dream I had one night after seeing a snake do this for the first time, where my chin was a joint and each jaw half could move independently and I stretched it sort of like this :p
When I was a wee little yellow belt I was rolling with a purple belt. When he took my back I was smart enough to drop my chin before he got the choke in. He cranked the choke anyway and suddenly I couldn’t close my mouth the whole way. A visiting black belt taught me the eraser trick.
A buck and dollar general beats a trip to the ER any day of the week. lol
