Not all jaw pain is "just stress."
A few signs it's worth getting checked:
→ Pain that lingers, even after a day or two of rest
→ Clicking or popping when you open and close
→ Pain that spreads toward your ear
Left alone, these can point to TMJ dysfunction, an impacted tooth, or an infection. The earlier it's checked, the simpler the fix usually is.
