Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to temporo mandibular syndrome. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application. If the symptoms continue, I suggest to consult an orthopedist for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
