I was sitting in class and I think it was my jaw well there was a cracking noise and it just started hurting and it still does
the one thing my mom tried staying positive was that I have a hearing problem (my hammer anvil and stirrup, the three bones inside the ear, are somehow glued together) and my mom thinks they might have unglued themselves. Is this possible? I know this might go away soona dn it might have been me doing soemthing with my jaw but I just wanted to double check...

Sounds like TMJ Temporal Mandibular Joint problems. When you open and close your mouth you'll hear clicking noises. I have had it for years and it gives me ear aches and head aches. You can have it fixed go and see your dentist and he will set you up with a specialist to correct it. I haven't , I've had it since my twenties and I'm so used to it that I barely notice it. My only fear about it is if I yawn really hard my jaw could lock open. So if you have the cash or dental plan look into getting it fixed. Good luck

It's very possible it could be TMJ. If you have ruled out an ear infection, I would make a visit to the dentist. I have TMJ and it sounds exeactly what I experience.

I think you should go to the doctor, because when you don't take care of hearing problems they can become so bad and affect your balance
