I've noticed that when I wake up to eat I have this popping noise back on my jaw towards my ear but just underneath it. It's not all the time but, it has been more noticeable lately.

For the past few years my jaw always clicked, and at one stage I couldn't open my mouth very far or chew because it hurt. 2 weeks ago I woke up to my jaw being in so much pain, the doctors said it was jaw dysfunction and they don't know why it happens. I had therapy on it once, but that did nothing..
