"i&#039;m 19 and have chronic tmj joint pain and clicking. i get spouts of breakthrough pain that disables me from talking, eating, and other things that require mouth movements. i recently had the worst pain ever in my jaw and had to go to the er. was given percocet 5/325 and it took away my pain completely and helped tremendously. i&#039;ve tried vicodin in the past but didn&#039;t help my tmj as much as percocet does.
