from what you say it seems to me that your gecko has rubber jaw aka MBD. This condition is usually caused by improper husbandry leading to a deficancy in Calcium. My suggestion is that you get your gecko to a vet, usually they house the lizard for a few days depending on how severe the case is and usually give a course of Ca injections along with specialized care. I hope this helps and good luck with the gecko. Sorry about the spelling it's late and i still got a paper to write for classes tommorow, guys if i missed anything please add.
