Tmj: It sounds like an issue with your Tmj joint. An oral surgeon us typically the medical professional that treats that condition, but if you already have a close relationship with your dentist, you could see them first and see what they say.

Oral surgeon: If your discomfort is diminishing and the jaw range of motion is returning toward normal, you could wait. If no significant improvement, I recommend a consultation with an oral surgeon to evaluate and advise you about your temporomandibular joint injury or dysfunction.

TMD/TMJ: What you describe are typical symptoms of what we refer to as TMD (Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction) more commonly known as TMJ. I strongly recommend you see a dentist who has extensive experience & training in this field as there are many conservative approaches to both help you feel better sooner rather than later & more importantly to prevent bigger problems down the road. Even if pain gone
