How To Get Rid Of Constant Pain In The Bone Behind My Ear?

I have constant pain in what seems to be the bone behind my ear. It has lasted for more than 8 hours and nothing I take seems to numb it. The pain appeared unexpectedly in the middle of the night no prior warnings. What can I do or take to get rid of the pain?
