I have my head hanging over the side of the bed nothing is stoping this pain!! Nothing warm. Or cold or anything is making this pain just ease up at all. Its like the center of my middle ear. Hanging my head over the side of the bed stops it for a sec. i cant get this pain to stop im bout to call 911 thats how much its hurting. The previous answer said IB profuen i swolled 6 of them and it hasnt put a dent in jt. I need something to nake the pain ease up just for 2 secs so i cam think but no matter what. Hot, cold, pressure no pressure, head hanging over the side of the bed nothjnf is geting this pain to stop!
