I have been having severe pain on the left side of my face, around the ear and inside my mouth (in and around my jaw) for about three months now. Doctors have prescribed pt, thinking it was TMJ, but I am not getting better and am starting to wonder if I could have a fracture or something in my jaw. The skin around my mouth and cheek (near the L ear) hurt to the touch. The headache I get after chewing or talking (every day) usually centers around my jaw/ear, but will radiate up to the top of my head...
Looks like you have got a weak temporomandibular joint. I suggest to check whether you have got any hit on your affected side any time recently. For treatment do visit an or tho he will check with x-ray and suggest surgical fixation If joint is too weak or again will keep you on conservative treatment like medicine and physiotherapy if its only inflammation with any sort of infection. You can also use cold pack, hot pack frequently to the affected area to have more of anti-inflammatory and soothing effects. But in any case since its long time you need to visit or tho doctor too. Take care.
