Quit habits strictly. Seems like you have oral submucous fibrosis (osmf). Kindly consult an oral & maxillo facial surgeon in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. You may need conservative or surgical management for mouth opening depending upon the stage of osmf. Advise full mouth opening, ballooning exercise & side to side movement of the jaw. Wrap 25 to 30 ice-cream sticks, make a bundle, put it between upper & lower front teeth for 15 minutes thrice a day increase 1 sticks each day.

Hello Lybrate user. I advice you to send a clinical intraoral picture for proper diagnosis. Stop if you have any habits like smoking, alcoholism. Consult a oral and maxillofacial surgeon regarding this management. Thank you. Have a nice day.
