Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain in the jaw can be secondary to tooth or gum infection. This kind of pain can also occur in case of impacted wisdom tooth or it can be secondary to temporomandibular joint disorders which can be stress related. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and rule out the tooth related problems causing pain, then we can treat accordingly. But lead a stress free life.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
