You have to go for manual myofascial trigger point release for jaw muscle,which will relief your symptoms.This is the only therapy or dry needling therapy which can help you.Don’t opt for any other physiotherapy treatment as per my suggestion.
I can definitely help you in this case if you are in Delhi .kindly book an appointment. Thanks take care
