It hurts not at all to open my jaw not stiff, just hurts all the time. Once in a while I also get weird aches in my chin. My three remaining teeth on that top jaw are very bothered aching. Closing my mouth is bothersome. I'm having a very hard getting my jaw/cheek to relax its really bothered. I'm sorry this is hard to explain, I used to gently rest my teeth together to relax now that is excruciating(or it gives me a tension headache)

Does this sound like nerve damage? Or tmj? Or like I just need more healing time? I took extra strength Tylenol and one Advil nothing.
