Question

Misaligned Jaw

Asked for Male, 18 Years

Hi...doc...Around 1 year ago, I had a serious jaw pain. I accidentally opened my mouth too widely while i was eating my food. As a result, i got the pain. I didn't take that seriously as I thought that it's a petty thing. Slowly, the pain got away. Now,here's the main problem. For the past 1 year, i'm living with a entire changed jawline. My face got changed. On my right cheek jaw,there's a swelling (without pain) and i hear a sound from inside my mouth whenever i open my mouth. Please help me..
