Is There Any Home Treatment Or Massage That I Can Do To Relieve The Knot?

I had 4 wisdom teeth removed right after Thanksgiving. I still have a knot in the muscle of my lower jaw on right side. Is there any home treatment or massage that I can do to relieve this knot? (what I believe to be a knot in the muscle, of course) It hurts to press with hard pressure. Thank you!
