You can read about my experience with this problem on this GUS forum thread. This is definitely doable and I was very successful with it. Although it is awkward at first to massage a muscle deep in your mouth with a finger I quickly got used to it.
The pain in my jaw had grown so bad I was having trouble eating. Massaging the pterygoid resolved this pain completely for me and it still hasn't come back.
If you must exaggerate to make a point, then you're must not be very good at making points.
