Default I hurt my jaw. 'Trying not to feel stupid.

Hi,
A week or two ago hubby told me that he had jaw pain.

It turns out that likely his ocd-type habits caused the jaw to get tired: Eating pomegranates (he chews the seeds and swallows all of the seed materials), pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and other nuts. I told him to take a break from those foods and he is feeling better now.


So, like a moron, two or three days ago I asked him how he felt and demonstrated for him something by moving my jaw in a way that stressed it. I injured something.
Now I cannot yawn. I cannot open my mouth very wide. This effects laughing and yelling too. And certain foods. I have to eat by barely opening my mouth. Oww.

I never thought that I would miss being able to open my mouth wide in a nice big yawn.
