There's something going around... I've had that too. Do you have a swollen
gland under your jaw? I had an infection in my tooth last Friday (had the
WORST weekend of my life!) and an emergency root canal Monday. The infection
spread to a lymph node under my jaw and has really affected my tongue
mobility and comfort in opening my mouth. I'm on antibiotics. You may want
to see your doctor.
