I tried googling but I can’t seem to find anything remotely related to it. I am familiar with how touching and rubbing over the area in pain kinda serves as a “white noise” for the pain receptors, is it a similar concept?
Maybe it’s a compilation of two reflexes – one makes you breathe heavily due to shock and it’s caused by elevated stress hormones and the other is a involuntary muscle spasm making the jaw clamp
