Hello and welcome,

Since you had pain around the right ear,there may be TMJ dislocation/pain/inflammation.
I would advice you to visit an oral-maxillofacial surgeon and get clinical examination like palpation done at the region of condyles to rule out any disk displacement is associated.
An OPG of the area will help to rule out any anomaly underlying.
Take complete course of antibiotics and analgesics along with muscle relaxants.
Avoid mouth opening too widely.
If there is dislocation /fracture of jaws/condyles,then jaws has to be immobilized and splinting has to be done.
Physiotherapic exercises has to be done.
Take care.
