Hoo boy, sounds like you're in Phase One of TMJ. Eventually the pain will go away, but then your jaw will get caught on itself at the joint and "snap" whenever you open your jaw, especially when chewing food. Very annoying, and it can't be fixed without highly invasive and expensive surgery.

Do you clench your tooth in any respect? I do while i'm offended or unhappy and while i'm snoozing. My jaws harm each and all the time and each now and returned as quickly as I even have had an rather stressful few days, as quickly as I chew down it hurts in my ears like yours do. you ought to take an anti inflammatory like Advil (Ibuprofen) now and returned in 4 hours to shrink soreness and any swelling. And exact you may now use an ice %. on your jaw and ear to additionally shrink the swelling and soreness. If the ice would not experience solid then attempt utilising warmth. you ought to use a heating pad, a heat moist washcloth or perchance a hair dryer set on low. If it would not get greater suitable in some days then (like yet another answerer pronounced) it o.k. would merely be an ear an infection. yet even no count if it rather is, each and all the concepts I gave you will artwork to shrink the soreness from that too. i'm hoping you experience greater suitable quickly and robust success at you interest...i'm hoping you and your group kick butt and win :)

this could very well be caused by a tumor in one of your peratid glands, have it checked out IMMEDIATELY. i had one of these for years and it never bothered me because of its exact location and the fact that it never turned cancerous-have it checked out ASAP because they are very common and if its starting to hurt that could be a sign that you have such a tumor, and that it is cancerous or has just finally grown into something that it shouldnt have. by the way normally this will not affect your saliva output or anything, but if left unchecked can cause very serious problems. please have this checked out!

Sounds like TMJ from gritting or grinding your teeth. See a dentist.
