Hello, I recently have developed a strange jaw pain at the hinge of my jaw, and just by feeling around i can feel that it seems to be slightly swollen. it is only on the left side of my jaw. i recently got dental work done on that side for a cavity.
it hurts to open past a certain degree. it all started last night, but for the 5 days prior to the new pain i would wake up with a soar throat, runny nose, and mucus. i don't have the headache soar throat or runny nose during the day but once its time for bed it starts to come back until i get up the next morning.
associated with the jaw pain came this weird ringing noise only in my left ear on occasion, it sounds like a beep around 8-14khz. it comes and goes and is more audible when i close my ear or muffle it.
What could be wrong?

You seem to be suffering from temporo Mandibular joint dysfunction with myofacial pain which usually is secondary to dental problems. Consult a dentist or maxillo facial surgeon for more help
