ENT Specialist,  's  Response
HI,
I have gone through your query, and it suggests that you may be suffering from the referred otalgia and this may be due to the TMJ i.e. temporomandibular joint disorder.

To reach the near diagnosis you may go for the X ray of TM joint or CT scan of the TM joint.

Thanks
I find this answer helpful
