Hello sir..
pain while chewing may be due to decayed tooth on left side or due wisdom teeth on left side that may cause radiating pain in ear....you need to take x_ray (iopa) of the involved tooth region ... if it is due to decayed tooth then it may require Root canal treatment...if it is due to wisdom teeth then you need to surgically remove the teeth
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for furthur clinical examination and management
