Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The clicking sounds near the ear can be because of the disc displacement in the temporomandibular joint. This can occur secondary to opening your mouth too wide for long time during tooth removal. It is not dry socket. Consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. You need to take a radiograph like OPG and TMJ views. Mean while you can take tablet piroxicam.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
