Feel like something stuck in the throat
Hi,
I have lower jaw pain under ear, neck and ear for 3 months. Went to ENT and dentist. No ear infection. Dentist said it might be tmjd.
I have swelling in the lower jaw under ear, side of the neck, sore pain inside the ear,some lump on side of the neck and lower jaw. It hurts to open the jaw wider. I hear some clicking or snapping sound in the jaw whenever I open the mouth.
For last one week, I feel like something stuck in the throat. No throat Infection or redness. I am not able to swallow properly and it's difficult to swallow. I fee like some object present in throat all the time.is it a symptom of tmjd? Or it's something else?
I am so worried about this. Is it something serious or expected as part of tmjd? I have jaw pain and mild Swelling for 3 months. How to get relief from this feel? It feels constantly that something stuck in the throat.

The symptoms you have mentioned suggest tmj disorder.
Kindly consult to get the joint and muscles assessed. At the moment i suggest you soft diet. Do not open your mouth wide, be cautious while yawning,laughing. Take proper 8hours sleep. Use a soft pillow.
