Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Well the symptoms are more consistent with ear related problems and can be due to ear infection or due to perforation of the ear drum..

It does not probably look like mumps are it commonly represents as bilateral swelling of the cheeks infront of the ears..

So my suggestion is to consult an Otorhinolaryngologist and get evaluated and a clinical examination and an Otoscopy and if needed an x ray or MRI Scan can be done for confirmation of the cause..

For now you can take painkillers like Advil to relieve pain..

If there is perforation of the eardrum then it can be corrected by surgical repair of the eardrum..
Also avoid excessive water exposure of the ears.
Avoid exposure to loud sounds and do not pick your ears with q-tip to avoid any further damage..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
