Jaw pain: Jaw pain can be from a number of causes. An ear infection can certainly radiate to jaw joint. Another likely cause is TMJ/TMD pain from misplaced jaw relationship or occlusal dysharmony (bad bite). If the jaw pain goes away after resolution of the ear infection and you have no other symptoms, the ear infection was the likely cause. Otherwise see a dentist for an evaluation as to other causes.
