A member asked:
Immediately following a severe jaw pain bout, i have had a large acne breakout localized over that section of my jaw. outer sign of inner infection?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Possibly: The sore jaw may be due to irritated muscles. The irritated muscles may cause a decreased cleansing in the area, leading to an acne eruption.

Not usually: What was the cause of the jaw pain? Jaw pain and skin lesions are not usually related. Check with your physician. One possibility is an outbreak of shingles.
