Default severe pain and locked jaw after extraction

PLEASE can someone help me, I got a bottom left wisdom tooth extracted 7 days ago, as soon as i got home I needed pain relief for what felt like an extremely bad headache and sore ear. The next morning the pain was awful, i took Co code lol, and ibuprofen but it only helped a little, , to cut a long story short, I seen a dentist at the hospital who said that because the extraction was difficult ( over half an hour) that I may have a slipped disc and TMD. I was given dicflonac and codeine. However these only last for 4 hrs, then the pain starts, and by pain I mean I feel like iv knitting needles driven into my ear, the pain radiates to my temple and my neck and i get a burning sensation in my mouth, u can't open my jaw, not even enough to get a straw in, I'm so down, I can't work, u count the hours until I can take pain relief, what's wrong, why am I not getting Even a litter better. Do I need tests?
