Question I dont understand my MRI and anyone else with jaw pain from severe whiplash?

I have two questions:

I was in a bad car accident in November last year where I was rear ended they say at about 60 at a full stop and then pushed forward into the bus in front of us. I got double whiplash and extreme jaw pain and a concussion.

I thought I had a ear ache as I cant open my jaw fully anymore and am in severe pain when i chew. Question 1…Does anyone else have this?…

My other concern…
I got an MRI because of all the dizziness etc. I requested the paper as I was told by my physic that i have TMJ from the accident. I was hoping the MRI would show but it seems other things showed up?

I read: There is a 5 mm area of faint T2 hyperintensity in the centrum semiovale on the right side.

Signal void is seen from carotid and vertebral vessels.

Signal void is also seen fom mastoid air cells and paranasal sinuses.

A few small perivascula spaces are seen aound the anterior commissure bilaterally and symmetrically.

There is a faint rounded area of T2 hyperintensity in the centrum semiovale.
