A member asked:

I'm recovering from a jaw injury. every time i make a jerky or sharp or quick movement with my head, i get tightness and sometimes pain around my cheeks, mouth, and chin. no fever.what is cause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Muscles: It appears that the muscles in those areas go into spasms precipitated by certain motions of your head and neck. These should subside as your original injury heals further. Magnesium or calcium deficiencies can make muscle cramping more likely. Discuss this with your physician if symptoms persist.
