May not be ear: You can have transferred pain that originates in your jaw joint on that side but is sensed in the ear. It is one of the quirks in how we are wired. You might try some scheduled ibuprofen for a few days . If you tap your jaw joint sometimes you can recreate the ear pain when this is the case. Your doc can also sort this out.
