-Caveat Lector-
You know, now that I think about it I can think of a few possible explanations. Now
you are the only one who was there, so these may seem ridiculous to you, but there has
to be some explanation:
Mechanical. Maybe something in the car, a nut or bolt or something, snapped and
whacked you under the ear? Was it that sort of car.
Insect: Could it have been a bee sting, insect bite or sting? You stated the windows
were closed, but could something have gotten in through a gap or the airconditioning?
Physical/Psychological: Could it have been some sort of twitch or muscle spasm you
hadn't experienced before? There might be some sort of neurological explanation,
perhaps it was due to stress or something? You said it was bruised, but did you have a
mirror with you to check? If you bruise easily, any subsequent bruise might have been
caused by you rubbing the spot when the pain occured.
Just a few ideas to try and convince you you're sane.
