What you describe could be any number of things from an ear infection to an abcessed tooth.  There's a lot going on in that relatively small area of your head and where you feel the most pain may not be where the problem is coming from.  I had a similar problem a couple of years ago and mine turned out to be an abcessed tooth.  You'll need to see your doctor to pinpoint the problem.
