**urgent** I have a horrible catch below the left ear near the left jaw. I am not able to open my jaw while having food as feel some terrible catch in the nerves or muscles or maybe the jawbone not able to identify but all of a sudden I have this catch. I had this a month ago too when a sudden a catch happened due to opening mouth wide while having food, but this time I did nothing of that sort. Because if this sprain or catch the pain has spread to me left ear. Throat and severe headache on left side. With eye pain. I have a "pain lump" also below left ear and jaw section. Pls tell me how to overcome this catch. I tried doing small jaw exercises .opening and closing mouth in small heights. But feel pain while opening mouth. Can't identify if it is nerve/muscle/some flexible bone got twisted? Kept warm bag on ear jaw throat area too. What should I do to give immediate relief? Any pills for this sprain/twist? Since 3 4 days suffering this, due to which can't chew semi solid items.
