[|Human|] Hello, i have had pain in my jaw for a couple of months now it started around the time i lost a filling. This was filled in and i was prescribed antibiotics and it felt like it went. After a week it came back and has been on and off since lasting for weeks at a time. It hurts the muscle linking my top and bottom jaw and sometimes my neck can feel quite swollen. I have trouble opening my jaw fully. and it feels like my ears are clogged and under pressure slightly. i can also hear what sounds like cereal popping inside my mouth which is presume is my TMJ? I went back to my dentist a month a go and they said it was not dental related and shunned me away quite quickly. Since then i have tried a longer course of antibiotics which have done nothing. however it went for a couple of weeks and has reoccurred. I am 21 male 6 foot 1 and work in a factory using headsets which doesnt help. I am going to go back to my dentist before returning to my doctor but wanted a second opinion. I have been told it could be TMD and i have found blowing out of my nose puts pressure in my ears. Sorry if this seems complex but i do worry quite a bit naturally. Thankyou
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The pain in the tooth could be because of the tooth infection. If the infection is from wisdom tooth this kind of pain can arise. Consult an oral physician and get a radiograph done and get the tooth root canal treated or removed. Antibiotics will help for a short period of time we have to treat the cause. Infection can cause limited mouth opening. The pain and clicking sound can be secondary to disc displacement in TMJ. You need to take radiograph like TMJ views and see the movement and position of jaw bone. Later you can start with proximal tablet. Do not open your mouth too wide. Take soft diet for 15days. You can give hot fomentation over the joint. I hope my answer will help you. Take care
