Below mandible achy/throbbing pain
So here see in the picture, i have a throbbing pain when i massage that place or move the muscle with my finger at that place,i get no issue when doing normal activity. The area which is marked as red line, there only i get the pain. I got it checked by an ent recently he game my amoxyclav + zerodol mr. Since 4 weeks back i had a wisdom tooth extraction, but i had taken antibiotics then too. Coming back to now i checked it with my dentist he checked fr any infection but it was nt there, but after eating the meds for 3 days too, the pain remains like that... what shld i do? And note the pain only can be felt when i click my ears or massage that area, its feels like a sharp throbbing pain, doesnt occur when i move my jaw left and right.

It could be due to some issue in TMJ or muscles around it. You should get your OPG done. And physical examination is also helpful. Consult doctor online or offline for better guidance and treatment options.

Hello, It seems like you may have pain at that area either due to your TMJ or the muscle (masseter) which is present over the lateral surface of ramus of mandible. To get a thorough examination and diagnosis, you need to visit your nearest Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon as they specialise in this field.
