What Causes Painful Jaw And Neck Pain?

My 69 year old husband has been having jaw/neck pain, pretty painful at times, it occurs at different times, yawning and resting. He is in good health otherwise, good exercise program etc. just wanted to know if there is a need to be concerned. He sees a doctor for physicals and blood pressure.
