Hi.
Thanks for your query and concern for your Mother.
She has already undergone Hemithyroidectomy and Operation +RT + CT for Cancer of the breast.
The causes of pain in the left lower abdomen can be due to Colitis, secondaries of the cancer in the abdomen.
I would advise CT scan of the abdomen and Colonoscopy to find out the actual reasons so that further treatment can be planned ..
The cause of the pain behind the right ear can be again a lymph node due to secondary of the cancer or a muscle spam .. Clinical examination and FNAC will help to get a right diagnosis.
