It probably comes from clenching your
teeth or grinding them. Even tho you may
not do it during the day, you probably do
it in your sleep, or just don't realize
it. Try having someone stop you during
the day to remind you to check about what
you are doing with your jaw. My husband
does this for me..."Sweetie, your jaw is
set!" and then I will relax it, having not
even realized I was doing it.
Having a set or clenched jaw or all or
even part of the day is going to cause a
lot of what you are feeling.
