hello, you need to relax. you can do hot fomentation near your ears on both sides. visit a dentist and get it checked. ask for a night guard. if it still persists, consult an oral surgeon. listen to music or take a warm water bath before sleeping. this will help you to calm down.

It is a neuromuscular problem with an imbalance in your jaw muscles leading to a tmj problem. see www.tmjindia.com for the only person in india with a MKG (myokinesograph).
