What more if the discomfort is due to jaw pain?   Our jaw is one of the most important parts of our body because it supports our oral function.   When you have jaw pain, chewing or even opening mouth is really a struggle.   Strained jaw muscles, tooth pain due to growing wisdom teeth, grinding of the teeth while asleep and temporomandibular joint disorder are the causes of this condition.

This condition is not that alarming when you try to look at it but sometimes when it is accompanied by other symptoms like swelling, cut and bruises on the jawbone or jaw point and the throbbing runs through your cheeks and face then that is another medical condition called trigeminal neuralgia. But anyway, before we gone further, mild jaw pain can be treated by home remedies.
