Thanks for your query, i have gone through your query.
The pain in the ear could be because pf the oral submucous fibrosis causing fibrosis near the internal acoustic meatus. even the jaw pain could be because of OSMF or any tooth infection. consult a oral physician and start treatment for OSMF with intralesional steroid and hyaluronidase injections. automatically the pain in the jaw and ear will come down. you have to quit the habit immediately. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
