This sounds like the pain from a severe sinus infection as well.  A sinus infection can be VERY painful, and the areas you are describing are all part of the sinus tract.
I would see and ENT as soon as possible.

Hi,

It is quite possible that your TMJ has taken turn for the worse and is causing all these symptoms. Another possibility is migraine.
I would suggest you to apply cold compresses to the affected part and take Ibuprofen or any OTC NSAIDS. Paracetamol will not work in such a severe pain.
Please schedule an appointment with your doctor at your earliest. Take care!
