It sounds like "TMJ" (Tempromandibular Joint Dysfunction). I have it myself. The pain can be aggravated by an injury, tension (clenching your jaw) or eating too much hard/crunchy/chewy food, among other causes.
You doctor or dentist can assess your problem and suggest appropriate treatment for your case.
Good luck and take care! : )

Probably some form of TMJ, or Temperal Mandibular Jaw Disfunction. I have it, and it is aggravated by chewing lots of gum, playing my brass instrument, or chewing other hard foods a lot.
Look it up more or ask your dentist about it at your next visit. Keep away from gum!

First of all you should get that check out by a
doctor, cause that can be very serious. One of
my family or friends had the same problem
and I think it was called lockjaw syndrome when
they would open there mouth you would here
the sound of cracking noises, so get it check
out a doctor please it could be very serious.
