[|Human|] Hi, Im not sure if its because my wisdom tooth. But the top right far back part of my mouth hurts. I think its gotten better but before it was hard to swallow any food. And everytime i try opening my mouth wide or even eat my jaw hurts im not sure what it is. And i dont want to go to a dentist. What coupd it be and what type of medication should i take ? I also had an earache and ive been getting headaches but the jaw pain is just one side not both sides.
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of severe pain in the jaw which seems to be due to TMJ dysfunction, wisdom tooth eruption on that side, cavity or lesion and locking of jaw in a particular position. Need not worry. I would suggest you to rest properly and don't bend frequently forward. You should take light food and avoid hard food from that side. You should do warm saline gargles. You should relax jaw from locked position and bring it back to normal. For now take ibuprofen for pain and swelling. You should consult ENT specialist and oral and maxillofacial surgeon for proper examination and start treatment accordingly. Avoid excessive use of mobile from that side. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best wishes,
