I am hearing a creaking sound in my right ear when i yawn. what could this be?

Jaw moving: It may just be you are hearing the bones in your skull moving when you yawn, most likely the sound is coming from the joint where your jaw bone meets the skull, the temperomandibular joint. No need to worry if you aren't having any pain.
