This past 5-6 days my left side of my jaw (condyle area) hurts when i start chewing or moving it side to side. will it get better on its own and how long? any remedies to heal the process faster? thank you?

I assume this is not a dental problem. You may have strained a masseter muscle somehow or this could be a type of temporomandibular joint ( TMJ) dysfunction. At this time all you can due is avoid strenuous chewing activity to rest the muscle or the joint.
