My Jaw is sore, is this anything serious?!


Question: My Jaw is sore, is this anything serious!?
I woke up this morning, yawned, and the left side of my jaw made a big popping sound!. It's been sore ever since!. Is this anything serious, or will the soreness go away in time!?

This is the first time this has happened to me!. Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Hi!. You could be clenching your teeth at night, leading to your sore jaw!. If the pain doesn't improve, see a dentist or a TMJ specialist!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

You probably temporarily dislocated your left temporomandibular joint!. Don't do any "major" mouth opening/yawning for a while, take some pain relief and see a doctor in person if it doesn't get better in a few days!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
