I am experincing a lot of cranial and facial pains that seem to
coincide with an inability to open my jaw .

To see the pressure on my cranium is bad is understatement I can barely
with effort open my mouth wide enough to fit my finger in .

I tried to address this last year with intra cranial injections and had
a lot of success but unfortunately I had an incident which has made
things worse since then and resulted in this .

My question is then is what type , if any test could best address
something of this nature to see whats going on ?

thanks

You need to rule out fractures, tumors, etc.

If it is a muscle spasm that can be easily treated
