Most jaw or jawline problems show one or more of these symptoms:
• Pain in the jaw, face, or near the ear
• Swelling or a visible lump along the jawline
• Difficulty or pain while opening/closing the mouth
• Clicking or popping sounds in the jaw
• Stiffness or locking of the jaw
• Toothache without a clear dental cause
• Numbness or tingling in lips or chin (rare but important)
If pain, swelling, or limited mouth opening lasts more than a few days, a dental or oral specialist check is advised.
