What are the most common causes of an earache?
The most common causes of earache would be ear infection. Other common causes that we don’t think of are TMJ, which is jaw pain or clicking in the jaw, which is transmitted to the ear. It could be caused from grinding the teeth at night or stress. Another cause of earache could be a tumor that involves the neck area, which is transmitted to the ear by common nerves that give sensation to the area.
