Hello, thank you for sharing your problem with HCM.
The type of pain you are mentioning that you feel migraine while chewing food and swallowing it looks that you are having Temporomandibular joint disorder (problem of the joints of the jaw).
Actually the pain which you are are experiencing can be the muscular pain which is radiating towards head.
I think you should visit a good dentist who will examine the joint properly and will prescribe you muscle relaxant s or other treatment.
Hope it will help you.
