Hi, I have jaw pain. It has slowly gotten worse throughout the day. Both sides of my mouth and jaw hurt. If I put my teeth together my teeth even ache and hurt. I took (2) extra strength Tylenol and it helps a little, but I feel like I need to put ice on it. I have had TMJ...a long time ago. It feels like it but I do not remember my teeth hurting.
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe tooth pain and jaw pain. The symptoms you mention in query are pointing towards a condition known as bruise that is clenching of teeth at night, which occur due to May reason like TMJ problem, impacted tooth, misalignment of teeth, TMJ dislocation or psychological problem. I would suggest you to consult oral surgeon for proper diagnosis. Doctor may examine physically, movements of TMJ, order CT scan and MRI to find out exact cause. Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant along with anti-inflammatory (sometimes disc of TMJ get inflamed due to some reasons like injury) or refer you to orthodontist for alignment of teeth. For now start stretching exercises of TMJ and physical therapy of TMJ.  Try to do yoga and meditation, which are essential for whole body relaxation. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
