Answers:
You should definitely go to the doctor's especially if it's been hurting for that long.. Maybe even go to the ER. Cause you never know what it could be.Health Question & Answer

It's definitely just a case of TMJ, commonly referred to as lock jaw. Its a very common problem that the majority of the population experiences from time to time. Your jaw is inflamed in the temporomandibular joint, pushing your jaw slightly out of place and not allowing you to open it. Doctors will definitely help you out. In the meantime, take anti-inflamitories to bring down the swelling, and don't bother it more than you need to.Health Question & Answer

You probably have Temporo-Mandibular Joint (TMJ) Syndrome my mom and sister have it. It sucks. What causes TMJ Syndrome is: When you sleep at night, you clench your jaw. Then when you wake up the tension hits you. You often might get migraines. That is one major symptom of TMJ. Here are some more symtoms:

? TMJ clicking or popping
? Headache pain
? Ear pain and at times, pressure
? Ringing or noises in the ears
? TMJ catching or locking
? Change in occlusion (bite)
? Neck, shoulder and upper back pain
