A member asked:
For what reason does my temple hurt when i yawn/ open my mouth wide!?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Temporalis muscle: The temporalis muscle is inserted on the coronoid process of the lower jaw so any opening will stretch the temporalis muscle that originates on the temporal bone and cause pain if you open to wide.
