Can bad tooth cause shooting pains in head and ear?
Absolutely. I had what I thought was a migraine until I went to a dentist and discovered that my root canal had gotten infected. If you've got shooting pains in your head (especially the side!) or ear or neck, and you've already had those things checked out, definitely head to the dentist and get your teeth checked too.
A tooth ache may indicate a serious infection. If left untreated these can kill you.
I believe that in certain situations~ a heart attack, stroke,or even aneurism can occur from extreme high blood pressure cause by stress,and strain brought on by the pain..
What causes sharp pains behind left ear?
It is hard to say. But, if it persists more than a couple of days or you have a temperature, check in with your doctor. Some ideas from Mayo clinic:
* Try temperature therapy. Apply hot or cold compresses to your head or neck. Ice packs have a numbing effect, which may dull the sensation of pain. Hot packs and heating pads can relax tense muscles. Warm showers or baths may have a similar effect. * Massage painful areas. Apply gentle pressure to your scalp or temples. Alleviate muscle tension with a shoulder or neck massage. * Drink a caffeinated beverage. In small amounts, caffeine can enhance the pain-reducing effects of acetaminophen and aspirin.

Pain in your hips and legs when standing?
This could be many things, but one you may look into is the greater trochanteric bursitis. Weak hip abductors, especially the gluteus medius is often found. Some other factors that may contribute to this syndrome include genu varum (bow legs), pronation of the foot (subtalar joint pronation), and leg length discrepancy.
The IT band stretches from your hip abductors to you knee. This is a band and it has a tendency of becoming VERY tight when not stretched, even in those who are not very active.
After sitting for long periods my "hip" starts killing me. It also does this while I run. A lot of people suffer from greater trochanteric bursitis and do not realize that is what it is. If you ever have knee pain in the same leg, it is probably associated with this.
However, this is just one possibility. If stretching out the hip area (google hip stretches) does not help over a few days period, this may not be your problem.
Hope this helps or at least narrows down your possible problems!
