I Was In A Car Accident And The Airbag Deployed.

I was in a car accident and the airbag deployed. (It was a front end collision but my vehicle was not moving forward.) I wasn't hurt badly, just some pain in my chest & back. A month later, I was sick for a week with a respiratory infection and my ears hurting. They still hurt but not 24/7. I sleep with a heating pad which helps. An ENT Dr. said it was TMJ. I followed his directions for a month with no relief. My ears crackle when I swallow. The windows of the vehicle were up when the accident happened and I read the pressure in the cabin could have caused some type of ear damage. Accident was 2/5/15. Thanks.
