Suggest Treatment For Ear Ache And Discomfort In Jaw Area
I have been experiencing pain and a lot of discomfort on my right side in jaw area..almost feels like a stiff neck but its more by my jawline!! This has been going on for about a week and a half! I do have a stent in one of my heart arteries!! I m 64 year old woman with multiple health issues. Crohn s, MS, arthritis, HLA-B27 positive, Polymyalgia rheumatic, foot problems (fasciitis) spine problems. Just started on methotrexate this morning with 800mcg of folic acid..Just not sure if it is something to call my General Internist about or wait and see if it subsides. My ear has been aching also. any advice would be welcome. Thank You!!!

Hello,
The symptoms you describe are not clear and nonspecific. As an ENT, I am unable to arrive at a probable cause for your symptoms with your description. As you suffer from many interrelated conditions it is not right to take any medicines or wait further for these symptoms. Please visit your General Physician for further evaluation.
