A surgeon should look at the issue first then if they think you should go to a physiotherapist then it's okay. But first see a surgeon

you need to consult a Maxillofacial Surgeon .. General Dentist can't deal this case ..Visit an expert Maxillofacial surgeon in your area for proper treatment .

he said operation is not a solution you need to do exercises otherwise operation can cause more damage

I don't think so . because there is a big differences of exercises guided by a professional expert than a physiotherapist. Surgeon can guide you exercises which are exactly necessary for your treatment plan .. Do whatever surgeon guide you ..

visit a Oral surgeon and follow the exercises and avoid eating hard food and refrain from opening ur mouth wide while eating or yawning.
also go for a cervial x-ray and do neck exercises as well. it might be related to the cervical apart from TMJ

You need proper evaluation by oral and maxilofacial surgeon.
Also do you have pain on touching the skin of tbat side? Does it increase the pain?
