Pain while chewing food in right jaw
Hi I'm not sure if I need to consult a physician or dentist please guide me
From last few days I'm facing discomfort while chewing food opening mouth and yawning.
It seems like my jaw is not coming back to right place when I close my mouth after yawning and my right side of ear to all area of cheek is paining.
Specifically when I open my mouth to yawn it pains and when I close my mouth it doesn't come to its usual place and I've to kinda press my right side of cheekjaw to place it where it should be, also it sounds like cut.
Please help me what should I do my right side feels very heavy and paining
Thank you
