Suffering With Headaches, Pain, Fullness In Ears With Constant Crackle. Had Wisdom Tooth Removed. Is This The Cause ?

i have been told its tension headaches, allergies, sinus, something up my nose!, wisdom teeth.
i went to an osteopath who thought i was on the verge of being depressed, this is really really getting me down and i feel like i am a bad mother because im just in pain all day and cant cope with shouting children, i am losing the will to live.
i had acupuncture which helped with the pain but didnt stop either but i cant afford this every week so have had to stop.
could it be a problem with my ears or tmj thats keeps popping up when i research crackling ears, please please help me.

Thanks for posting your query.
Please do not get dishearten, headache is the commonest problem that we see in day to day practice.
In your case, an infection in the ear or congestion in the middle ear might be causing these symptoms. The crackling of TMJ is less likely to cause such a persistent headache. You can consult an ENT specialist for a detailed check up.
Your ENT specialist or neurologist after examination will decide the probable cause of headache and will also advise some investigation as per need.
In mean time, please do following which should help,
Take good adequate sleep
Plan your diet well
Do regular exercise
Do not take any medicines on your own.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
