Would sore ear give a stabbing headache?

I have quite a sore (crusty) ear, went to DR on Thursday, he said it looks like a pus inside and gave me Otomize ear spray.
This usually works on me pretty fast, I suffer from eczema in my ears and around so I get my ear infected from time to time and Otomize usually works fast.
The ear hurts only upon touching or when chewing.
This time it still hurts and this morning I developed a really pain in my head, very localised spot on the same side as my sore ear is but a bit high up, closer to the forehead.
I never have any sort of headaches before.
This is like a shooting pain in one spot.
Is this possible because of the ear?
I took painkillers and it got better however now they wearing off so I can feel again the occasional stab in my head??
I googled it and it comes with serious diseases like aneurysm etc..
I don’t feel ill or anything apart from the ear pain and the strange headache..
