Can you tell me if surgery has led to nerve damage?

Q. hi. i recently underwent surgery for the removal of a brain tumour (right side). When i awoke from surgery i noticed limited movement to one side of my jaw, movement from right to left. Also, my top and bottom teeth do not meet together on the right side. I cant open my mouth as wide as i use to. Eating solid food has become very difficult as my upper and lower teeth are bashing together on my left side. My main priority is ensuring i recover fully from the brain surgery. I realise that i may have undergone some nerve damage however it really feels like my jaw could have been knocked, perhaps during surgery, and i am wonderering whether it is possible to check and rectify this? I would be most grateful for your opinion. I am a 37 yr old healthy, fit male. Kind regards.,
A. It is very hard for me to tell you what I can do for you without seeing you in person and perhaps performing a few tests. I would be more than happy to see you regarding this matter.Justin glaisterwww.umbrellasmiles.com
