Thank you for using "Ask a doctor" service to post your health concern.
I read it carefully and I understand your worry.
From what you are describing you may have many possible problems. You may have an infection of the glands located near where you have the pain, an ear infection or an inflamation of the temporo-mandibular joint.
In order to understand what is the real problem and take accurate treatment you need to see a local doctor, get examined and do necessary tests.
I hope this is helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Papaqako
