What is that little indent right below the jaw where it gets stuck sometimes?

[@beautyqueen815]

either valleculae or pyriform sinuses, not sure which one you're talking about

[@UncannyLiving]

@@beautyqueen815 I saw it clearer on a video on tik tok but its below the jaw near the start of the throat, like a sideways U shape where extra substance gets caught. Maybe its more prominent depending on the person

Hi there. I was just wondering if you could explain a normal swallow because Ive been getting really bad jaw pain recently when swallowing. Are you supposed to clench your teeth to swallow or only use the tongue?

[@perfectdiver1]

Hi there, you shouldn't need to clench teeth during a swallow. your lips should be sealed and tongue retracting the bolus into the oesophagus. so teeth shouldn't be involved after chewing

Is it possible to recognise the sexe only from those pictures.

weirdo

[@abdou9888]

​@@the__black__box weirdo ? X) I'm just asking if there are any specific traits in the human skull that could allow us to recognize the sexe of the person, you on the other side, ... you must have some real issues XD.

@@abdou9888 i think both of the participants are probably male because if you pay attention to the chin its more square as opposed to be rounded which is what most females have. Also if you pay attention to the ramus its quite long, which would also suggest that they are both infact male .
