Is my jaw broken?!
Question: Is my jaw broken!?
I was at Taekwondo class last night and we were sparring!. I was wearing my mouthguard, before you ask!.
Anyway, my partner hook kicked (a sort of sweep where you hit with the bottom of the heel) me in the chin!. My jaw hurt on both sides and my mouth went numb!.
There were a couple medical people in my class who checked me out and said I looked alright!.
This morning, however, the left side of my jaw hurts in front of my ear and my jaw feels like it's drifting to the right!. So, is it broken!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
Can you still move it without screaming in pain!? Then no, it's not broken!.
However it is likely it's just sprained or brusied, and you can expect it to be sore for a few days- just remember to RICE (rest, ice, compress and elevate)
Hope you get better soon, and next time choose your sparring partner more wisely!Www@Answer-Health@Com

well it's best maybe to get a doctor or phsyio to check it out however heres what I think!.
if it was broken the pain would be unbearable you certainly wouldn't be able to even speak or eat etc!.
if you can eat speak etc it aint broken!.
I think it's maybe just bruised !. and the drifiting is just maybe the bruising heavy on one side!.
id say get another opnion but generally if your not rolling on the floor in pain it aint brokenWww@Answer-Health@Com

If might have caused inflammation in your temporomandibular joint!. It's the joint between your skull and mandible (jaw)!.
If it was broken you would probably be in unbearable pain!.
However it is really important to go get it checked out by your doctor or dentist as it could be a lot on things!.
Hope it works out!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am so sorry, I really don`t know!.!.!.!.
Just go to the NEAREST hospital, tell them you think your jaw is broken, and ask for some xrays, that should tell you, and if it is, they will give you jaw surgery!. Just a warning, jaw surgery is very minor, and is extremely painful afterwards, so don`t open it after that until the next day, but don`t open too wide, just like a baby "O"!. Each day get a bit bigger, and it`ll be fine!. Please email me:
