Jaw pain near ear
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?

Severe pain near your ear-jaw joint with difficulty opening your mouth likely points to a TMJ issue, deep dental infection, or nerve inflammation.
It’s not just jaw pain — it’s a warning sign.
Go soft on food, use warm compresses, and see an ENT or dentist immediately.
