Hi, Male 57 years old, I ve been having stabbing pain in right ear for a week and the last few days pain above and behind the right ear. The whole right side of my scalp is sentisive to touch. I have had Bells Palsey on two occasions, on right side many years ago and I do have C5, C6 disc bulges that cause slight right arm numbness.

Hi,
It seems that you might be having acute Otitis Media giving rise to this problem.
Consult ENT surgeon and get examined.
With one course of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicines you will be alright.
Ok and take care.
