Hello,
Swelling is uncommon in TMJ. Swelling indicates local inflammation.
As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
In severe cases, a CT scan also is considered.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
