TMJ: It sounds like 'classic' TMJ, but a severe case. I recommend an ENT visit to examine the jaw for TMJ and also your ears and hearing to see if it's all related. Might be something else, but a good head and neck exam should pinpoint the problem.

Classic: Classic signs of advanced dysfunction of the jaw (temporomandibular) joint (TMJ). Although an ENT consultation would rule out ear infection, you need to be seen by a Dentist to address your symptoms. Ask your Dentist to evaluate and then treat or refer.
