How can you fix a dislocated jaw?

Answer 1

When I dislocated my wrist at 13 I had to get surgery to pop it back Into place.. If it is a minor case a cast will be put on the wrist. The general option is to have a cast put in

place at an ortho place... Or the second option is closed surgery with a mallet.. If very bad open wrist to. Align the ligmates of the wrist them of course physical therapy.

Answer 2

if you have a wrist that hurts then you should put ice on it and relax. Make sure you have your wrist above your heart so the blood flows smoothly. if you can go to the doctor, go. Do not put pressure on it for at least 40-48 hours. Wait at least a day before you go to the doctors, unless you know that it is really severe but go to the hospital. i went through this and it really hurt i did all these things but eventually i had to get a cast. hope all these things helped. byeee thxx

Answer 3

Either go to your GP or go to A and E, I dislocated my jaw and my GP put it back in for me there and then because he was trained in this area The most important thing is that you have to relax your jaw and mouth muscles as much as possible.

Answer 4

If it doesn't hurt that much, here's what you do:

1. Place it on top of a hard piece of wood/plastic.

2. Secure it on your wrist by wrapping them together with a stretchy bandage

3. If you can't bend your wrist with the splint on, it's perfect.

4. Wear it for 1-4 weeks

For a subsitute, you can wear a wrist brace that you can buy at a drug store.

If the wrist hurts alot, go to a doctor/ER.

Answer 5

The diagnosis of a fracture is by xray, typically. If there is a fracture present, the decision must be made whether the fracture needs to be reduced, or "set," and then to splint or cast the fracture. Appropriate follow up with an orthopedic specialist is then indicated to follow the fracture out to healing.

Answer 6

Apply ice 15 minutes out of every hours, and gently stretch the effected area. You should be good as new in about 3-4 days.

Answer 7

You go to the doctor, he drugs you up, then he pops it back in place.
