A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible TMJ: This may be a case of temporomandibular joint inflammation or dysfunction from grinding your teeth or a problem with your bite. An otolaryngologist(ear,nose and throat specialist) is qualified to evaluate and treat you if symptoms persist. Another possibility is an irritable,pinched or inflammed nerve near the mastoid area. In the meantime try applying heat or cold, and if you can take them,NSAIDS
