Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Constant pain in ear, neck and jaw and click in left TMJ with no signs of ear infection are all pointing towards jaw joint dysfunction also known as TMJ/TMD..

I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician or an Oral Surgeon and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like Panoramic x ray will be advised for diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

Although anti inflammatory painkiller and muscle relaxant are a part of treating this condition but to relieve the condition other procedures like night guards, physiotherapy and warm or cool compresses depending on the cause of the problem will also be advised..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
