Jaw pain along with stiffed jaw and limited movement. The pain is associated with the ear fullness and headache especially in temporal region.
get an OPG done and book in person consultation with an Oral & Maxillofacial surgeon.
The problem looks like due to TMJ problem which needs clinical and radiological assessment and accordingly treatment.

Sometimes, in morning there's so much pain that when I wake up, the jaw seems locked and stiff. I can't lay on that side again. It isn't in only one jaw but takes place on both sides. There's any habit of bruxism but yes I've an habit of nail biting.

according to this opg, joint space is reduced and the problem will not be solved by medicines alone. kindly visit me or anyother Maxillofacial surgeon nearby. till that time use some painkillers, eat soft diet, and talk less

What other procedure can be done? As you stated the joint space is reduced. It's from both sides(left and right) or not as I feel pain on both sides of my jaw.
