Eustachian tube: You may well have an issue with the tube that connects the middle ear with the outside world. This is located in the back of the nose and called the eustachian tube. This can become blocked by allergy or a cold for example. See your doctor or an ENT specialist who can help you with this.

Have it check out: Go to doctor to eliminate the ear infection as the reason. Go to ENT to exam your ear, nose, and throat. Go to dentist to rule out TMJ or any abscess/inflammation in the area of wisdom teeth. Have it check out by professionals. It can be resolved easily as long as the cause is addressed. Treat the cause, not the symptom.
