Answers:

could it be an ear infection? i have had ear infections my whole life, and when they get bad, i have jaw pain. you could also have TMJ, which is Temporomadibular Joint Disorder. this causes jaw pain, popping, and even swelling. try this link and see if your symptoms match up.http://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/tempo...

good luck to you.
