With his history there may not be much that can be done to help the situation. A surgery would probably be out of the question. If I remember correctly, he had some healing difficulties a while back with his jaw. The only thing I can think of is seeking out a physical therapist who is familiar with patients that have jaw issues. I went to one years ago who worked out of Nesquehoning which is pretty far from your area. Im sorry, I wish I had more suggestions but unfortunately this could be scar tissue building up and affecting his mobility.
Good luck!
