A member asked:
I accientually hit my friends jaw (the bottom part where you could feel the bone). the next day, it diidn't hurt her? could i have damaged it?

Probably not: If it is not hurting the next day, it is unlikely that you did any significant damage. The main damage with trauma to the jaw is a broken jaw bone. If the jaw bone is broken then it would definitely hurt the next day.
