Brief Answer:
Either jaw joint disorder or tooth decay, get x ray done..

Detailed Answer:
Hi..
Thanks for writing back..

As per your complain the symptoms that you have explained seems to be either related to a deeply decayed tooth or jaw joint problem..

But for confirmation you need to get a Panoromic x-ray done which will cover your jaw joint as well as teeth..

Once the exact cause is ruled out then treatment can be done accordingly..

As of now you can take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen, Diclofenac, Tylenol etc to relieve pain..

Please write back for more queries..
