Default Joint pain post jaw surgery?

Hello,

I had jaw surgery over 15 years ago and for the most part I have been very happy with the results. I had both upper and lower jaw surgery done at the same time to correct an overbite. The surgery was a success, however lately I have been experiencing some tender spots along my jaw line where the screws and plates were put into place. Has anyone else experienced this? Sometimes I feel like one of the screws might be 'popping out', which sounds crazy.

Has anyone else experienced similar tenderness?
