Usually referring to a disorder of the jaw joint, which inhibits the afflicted's ability to easily open and close their jaw. In my case, my jaw does this snap-crackle-pop when I open and close it, it's very difficult to open my mouth wide (which always makes dental work interesting), and I sometimes suffer near excruciating pain during a flare-up.
Ah. Man that sucks. I've had that, where your jaw gets all stiff and pops and aches, but it's not a permanent condition. And I see why that would totally suck to have. My problem is, I just have a really small mouth. I just try to not to let that stop me. ;)
