I've been having this nagging pain in my jaw, right near the ear for the past few days. It really hurts when I chew my food, yawn, or if I move my mouth a lot. Any idea what this could be? Who should I see about it?

I'm dealing with this mild pain near my left jaw, just below the ear, and it's been happening on and off for about six months now. I saw an ENT specialist, and they had me get an X-ray of my mouth both open and closed, but everything looked normal. I'm starting to wonder what my next move should be. Is this pain something I should be worried about, or is it likely nothing serious?
