Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I would recommend seeing a dentist to make sure you haven't fractured your mandibular condyle. An X-ray will be needed. In the mean time, ice it down if it's less than several days old. And consider an OTC pain reliever (follow label instructions).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
