What Causes Pain On Right Side Of Head And Jawline?

I felt a pop on the right side of my head near my temple and a sharp pain down my jaw line and down my neck. It felt like there was a huge lump in my throat (where my lymph nodes are) and I couldn t swallow. I got a brain scan and it came back clear so they don t know what it is.
