What Do Pain And Discomfort Above The Left Ear Indicate?
Over the past 6 days my 4 year old granddaughter has told me twice my blood pimple pops and it feels funny or the second time she said it hurt for a minute.The area she points to the left side of her head above her left ear.I am a recently retired RN who had worked for 15 years in an ER out of a career of 40 years so I am probably a bit paranoid.My grandaughter is a healthy 4 year old other than tonsil removal 3 months ago for extremely large tonsils.She is well spoken for her age and articulates herself very well.Looking for some thoughts ?

Hi,
Tonsils and ears are all interconnected but I really don't think there is a serious pathology with her . I would advise you to get her ear checked if she says she has pain again .
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
