Head Injury, Cut Lip, Jaw And Face Hurting, Ear Pain, Teeth Do Not Feel Aligned. What Do We Do?
My daughter is a field hockey goalie and in her game tonight, she was hit in the head/helmet. Her helmet shifted and she was hit. Cut her lip but thought everything else was fine until she pushed her helmet back on correctly. Said that her jaw/face hurt. She says she has some pain back by her ear on that side and that her teeth don t feel aligned normally. What she we do?

Hi,
Welcome to Helathcaremagic.
Based on the symptoms your daughter has , I suspect there to be mild dislocation in the Tempromandibular joint (jaw joint).
I suggest you to take her to a GP who can examine and ascertain the fact.Later may refer to a Oromaxillofacial surgeon who can deal it there is a unreducable deformity.
Wish you good health.
