Ears problem... HELP ???!
Question:
Ears problem... HELP ???
Hey guys...
Yesterday my problems with my right ear started. Right under the ear, something is swollen and it's hard and it hurts when I press it... It also hurts when I try to open my mouth too wide.
Today, I have the same problem with my left ear, with the same swollen thing right under my ear. It hurts like hell, and I can't eat, or laugh...
Can anyone help, pls ?
Answers:
Yes, your symptoms sound like you've developed TMJ ! TEMPO-MANDIBULAR-JOINT DYSFUNCTION !!! Either type that name into your search engine, pick the best site & compare your symptoms and/or go to WEB-MD.COM and enter your symptoms. There should be ideas listed to help you. You may have to wear a night-bite (a mouth-piece symilar to what football players wear in their mouths).
You should also see an ORAL SURGEON -- ASAP -- as you appear to have serious case & need help b4 it gets worse !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good Luck, AUNT BARBIE
