Welcome to healthcaremagic forum.
The lump at the jaw may be caused due to abscess developed due to deep caries/periodontal infection/impacted wisdom tooth.
I would suggest you to get a thorough clinical as well as x-ray evaluation done.
Impacted teeth has to be either extracted or retained depending on severity of lesion.
Take augmentin along with analgesics.
If symptoms persists,please do visit an ENT specialist too.
Hope this helps.

MD Hi I have a ear ache and a noise that sounds like wind in my right ear and a pain in the back of my head at the same side that feels like I have been punched I also have a small lump behind my right ear where the jaw line connects and all the right hand side of my face has gone numb and I want to know what is wrong with me
MD I am a 15 year old male, 5 foot 8, 150 pounds. My medical history includes nose surgery and a few ear infections in my youth. My problem is with my ear. At the beginning of summer 2011, there was a night that I felt excrutiating pain in my head, the biggest headache I have ever had. I had been at the community swimming pool all day, it was my third day there. I woke up the day after that with a loud ringing in my ears and some pain and feeling of fullness. I got it checked out in a week and it turned out to be a minor ear infection. I took amoxcyline for 10 days, but my symptoms did not let up at all. I got my ear checked out again but the doctor said my ear infection was gone, and that it would take a few days for my eustachian tube to drain to ease my symptoms. A month passed with my symptoms only letting up a little bit. I got checked out again in the beginning of september and the doctor diagnosed me with a sinus infection, causing my eustachian tube to swell up, not allowing the fluid to drain from it. He put me on steroid nasal spray for 2 weeks. I did the full treatment, and my symptoms let up just a little bit, but are still there. My full list of symptoms include: Ear ringing, sudden ear pain, jaw pain, pain when chewing occasionally, sharp sudden jaw pain a couple times a week, headaches occasionally, sore throats on some weeks, and thick mucus coming out my nose every few days.
MD i have a reoccurring every 1 to 3 seconds a shooting electrical pain that started yesterday evening approx. 7:30 pm in the Lambdoid sutre in that proximity of my skull. Also, noticed that the right upper area of my right ear had phantom nerve endings tender sensation. Should I visit make an appointment or go to minior emergency? I pulled up on line information on the skull so that I could give a description of where the pain area is occurring. for referencing....not positive if the Lambdoid sutre is the correct area. however the pain is approx. a couple inches up from my right ear on the backside of my skull

MD Two days ago I started getting occasional sharp pain inside my right ear and occasional shooting pains in my head, also on the right side. My head feels a little tender in that spot. I also noticed some small, painless lumps on my jaw line under my right ear. I have no idea if they re related to the other symptoms. Any ideas what this could be?
MD My period is now 16 days late, and it is very regular...I use a menstruation tracker. I have been feeling sick to my stomach, getting headaches, severe backaches, and feeling dizzy. I did take a pregnancy test, but it was negative, so I wasn't too worried because I am on the pill (although there were probably a few times where I forgot to take it and then doubled up the next night). Suddenly today, I started getting severe sharp pains in my lower abdomen (mostly on the left side, but radiating to both sides) and severe pains in my upper abdomen, like I was going to throw up...I feel weak and started to have bright red bleeding, although it isn't heavy. all day today before the pain, I was having brown discharge that had stringy clots in it. I am debating on visiting the ER and wanted to ask your opinion.
