Jaw pain near ear

2025-04-18 10:08:01
I've been facing jaw pain since 2-3 weeks. Since the last 3-4 days the pain has skyrocketed and has been unbearable. The pain spot is exactly in between the right ear and jaw spot. It's been difficult to open mouth while eating too. Can someone recommend me what to do?
