It doesn't work that way. Initial trauma might have distorted. But gradual forces made it happen so. So it will be better for you to go to a dental surgeon nearby. Oral and maxillofacial pathologist or surgeon might help you particularly with your situation. Don't need to worry at all. Don't forget to mention if my advice is helpful.

Hi. From the description it seems she may have secondary trigeminal neuralgia. It is caused when a tumor presses on a nerve root in the brain. She will need an mri and a neurosurgical opinion for further management.

Please check if it's due to any tooth or not. Visit a dental surgeon nearby, may suggest some radiographs and medicines. You don't need to worry, just try to reach as sooner as you can.

Hiii. Good morning. You can also take antibiotics for three days twice a day. Apply cold pack in that region extraoraly. Check if you have the habit of bruxism. Avoid getting stressed. After three days, swelling will reduce, if not follow up.
Thank you.

Hello. I would suggest you to visit the oral surgeon in person. Don't worry. Certain people will have tmj dislocations. And difficulties in jaw movements. They are due to stress, bruxism or any other medical history luke arthritis. Avoid being stress. Check from bruxism
so tmjoint exercises. Thank you.

**urgent** a week ago I opened mouth hugely while chewing food. And was having food very fast. So got a catch in the jaw side below the ear I have a horrible catch in the left ear near the left jaw. I can feel the pain in the spot where upper and low joint meet. If we press ear below tragus part. Corresponding to the bone behind the extreme last molar on the left lower jaw. I feel pain when chewing semi solid food as feel some terrible catch in the the jawbone, all of a sudden I have this catch. The pain has spread to my left ear/throat 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 but no use. Bcoz of this nerve/muscle around area are in pain/some flexible jaw bone got twisted kept warm bag on ear jaw throat area too, have been applying myolaxin since many days. What should I do to give immediate relief? Any pills for this sprain/twist?

Hello Lybrate user. The jaw is locked in its position. It's seen in many patients. It may be due to bruxism, frequently chewing, stress, tempero mandibular joint disease. The treatment plan depends on the cause. Check if you have the habit of bruxism. Don't feel stressed. Take calcium and magnesium rich foods. Apply warm pack extraoraly. Gradually it will subside. Consult me for further treatment plans and procedures. Thank you.
