A few months ago, i started having this ear problem. My ear would fill up with pressure and i would have to pop my ear constantly and i get this clicking noise when i open my mouth. I've heard it might be a TMJ problem. can anyone help?

You might have an ear infection, or it is possible that you have a nasal problem. Those two are connected. Did you have severe nasal congestion lately? It is possible that "stuff" from you sinus didn't clear out properly. It can leads to an ear infection. You should see a doctor if you think you're having an ear infection for the first time. They can get pretty painful. You won't know it till it hurts a lot. But when it hurts a lot it is at the point when your hearing is in danger.

go and see your doctor.....you proably do have an ear infection and you need infection medicine.
Ear Infections
Symptoms
Symptoms of a middle ear infection (otitis media) often start 2 to 7 days after a cold or other upper respiratory infection. Symptoms of an ear infection may include:
Ear pain (mild to severe). Babies often pull or tug at their ears when they have an earache. When the fluid in the middle ear builds up, the eardrum may burst (rupture). Once it ruptures, the fluid drains, and the pain usually stops. The hole in the eardrum often heals by itself in a few weeks.
Fever.
Drainage from the ear that is thick and yellow. Blood in this fluid can mean the eardrum has ruptured.
Loss of appetite, vomiting, and grumpy behavior.
Trouble sleeping.
Possible loss of hearing.
Symptoms of fluid buildup may include:
Popping, ringing, or a feeling of fullness or pressure in the ear. Children often have trouble describing this feeling. Children may rub their ears trying to relieve pressure.
Loss of hearing. Children with hearing loss may seem dreamy or inattentive, or they may appear grumpy or cranky.
Balance problems and dizziness.

TMJ is a jaw problem, not an ear problem, which I think you gather.
Sounds like you just have some fluid in your ears. Talk to a professional.
