What could cause persistent headaches behind my left ear for about 2 weeks?

Occipital neuralgia: Could be due to problems with the greater occipital nerve, perhaps pain referred from the neck, conceivably a migraine variant, perhaps pain from jaw problems, even due to prior head trauma in the area?
