If the pain persists: consider seeing your dentist.Sometime pain from a tooth problem can radiate up to the ears.You may also be having eustachian tube dysfunction,which is when these tubes,which connect the back of your throat to your middle ear,are not draining fluid or equalizing pressure properly.Take some ibuprofen or acetaminophen for the weekend and see the dentist and your own doctor when they are available.
