Jaw locked!
My jaw was dislocated from it's place after I woke up while I was trying to yawn and out of fear I tried moving my jaw and it was back to it's place after few mins, it happened around 4 am in the morning.. right now there is no pain but I am kind of scared to open my mouth fully and freely. Kindly suggest.. Thank you!
