Few causes: Could be related to ear trouble like infection Could be due to dysfunction of the jaw joint Could be due to problems of the underlying muscles, salivary glands or the lymph nodes Could be due to tooth problem Also might be due inflammation of the blood vessel (called temporal artery) if your age is more than 55 years, and this is considered something that needs to be checked out urgently.

See dentist: Sounds like TMD, which is a disorder or the jaw joint from grinding or clenching. See your DDS for an neal and a consult for a night guard. Also apply warm compresses and you can take Advil to help with the inflammation. If not TMD, could be infected tooth. Either way need to see DDS. Hope this helps.
