I feel my cheeks really heavy

I just feel like if I have blown so many balloons. Cheeks feel heavy and jaw in a way. Nothing much to say. Just the feeling of heaviness in my mouth, cheeks and jaw.

Going by your description, it seems like the muscles of the cheek are involved. This can occur due to multiple reasons like infection, trauma or even involvement of salivary glands. Please visit a dentist for a proper clinical examination to ascertain the exact cause. The right treatment can be instituted only after the right diagnosis.
