.. a nerve right next to my ear’s tragus. Not consistently but maybe once or twice a day. Pain is more like unbearable throbbing.. I don’t know how else to describe it. It doesn’t last more than a minute but during that time I can’t do anything else but to hold my head & suffer.
Any suggestions other than checking with the Dr?
yes.
check with the doctor -right away.
r u sleeping on just that side?
What did those Japs do to you, they planted something in your ear while you were sleeping! Told you not to stay in Hachioji!
Well, I do tend to sleep on my right side (where it hurts) more than my left. But not always ..
Cat, it's been going on for about 2 months now .. so I can't blame them.
Have you been living with a woman for more than a year?. Ear infections in men are quite common after long term association with the opposite gender. It works out pretty good actually as you now have an excuse for, " I can't hear you honey".
When a person has a discomforting pain, should he
a) Go see a doctor, trained to diagnose & treat pain, about it?
b) Ask a bunch on medical ignoramuses he hasn’t ever met but just posts messages to online if they know what it is?
I think you need to see an ENT (ear, nose, throat) specialist.
I think Maddy brings up a valid concern. AJ, may be you should talk to your doctor about 'point b' while you visit for 'point a'
Well, it doesn't hurt to ask; after all it is the health forum. And while others might enjoy a Dr's office trip, I tend to get out of it as much as possible. Don’t worry, I am suppose to get an appointment sometime today.
That was mean. Sorry AJ. Feel better. 
AJ bhai, please go to the doctor A.S.A.P
inshallah its gona be nothing lekin aise maamlon mein deyr BILKUL bhee nai karni chahiye

Faisal Bhai, I thought you were the google King!
So what is a tragus? If you don't know, that is fine, but since you mentioned it in your first post, so I kinda thought you would know what you are talking about. Its ok. No worries. We'll let everyone Google it.
