Ear pain after wisdom teeth extraction?

Hello everyone,
So I survived sedation! But a new problem has come up.
On one side of my face (I got my two lower wisdom teeth out), I have this dull aching in my left ear. My jaw is a little achy too, but it is not severe pain. I took the hydrocodone the surgeon prescribed, but the achiness is not going away.
I got my teeth out on Friday afternoon, and it is now Monday afternoon. Could this be dry socket?
I know the best person to call is the dentist, but I can’t get there myself, and the people around me are all busy, so I want to be sure before I make an appointment.
