I just woke up a few minutes ago and when I did my jaw was in a lot of pain as if i had slept with it forced apart. My ear however has an acute sharp pain which is relieved when I clog my ear canal with water. HELP ME!!!!!!!!

Sounds like TMJ issue or ear infection to me. Make sure to go see a doctor as soon as possible. If not treated properly, these things can get really nasty.

I don't think you should put anything in there to fix it. Go and see your doctor and make sure it isn't something serious!!! :( Get well soon.

I suggest you make an appointment with your doctor. You could possibly have an inner ear infection or some other problem that would require the care of your physician.
