Otolaryngologist / ENT Specialist Dr. Naveen Kumar Nanjasetty's  Response
Hi,

This can be due to either arthritis of the Temporomandibular joint or Infection of the external ear which is difficult to comment until examined thoroughly. Till you get a consultation try taking anti-inflammatory drugs (such as Ibuprofen/Diclofenac). Avoid chewing on the affected side and finally, eat only soft food. Keep us informed about the progress.

Regards
Dr. Naveen Kumar
