Ear infection headache

Common Questions and Answers about Ear infection headache

infection

Avatar n tn In temporal arteritis there is inflammation of the blood vessel at the temple. Internal ear infection, fluid in ear (went in during swimming or during a shower bath or due to infection), or impacted wax can be a problem. In infection of tooth, exposed nerve endings of tooth can be a problem. In TMJ, the pain will be aggravated on opening the mouth and on chewing. Infection in the eye, glaucoma, near and far sightedness and sinusitis are the other causes.
Avatar f tn I did have a day where my ears were bothering me. After my symptoms left I was left with my left ear feeling like pressure .I would tug on the ear lobe and feel better. But now I feel like my lymph node is swollen.
Avatar f tn Definitely could be an ear infection/sinus infection. However, I would ask if your jaw pops at all when you open it? It could be TMJ as well. I suffered with TMJ for a while before I found out what it was from a dentist.
Avatar f tn Other conditions to be strongly ruled out in your case could be cervical spinal nerve compression, Meniere’s disease of the ear, wax in the ear, infection of the middle or inner ear, benign positional vertigo and benign intracranial hypertension. Hence it is important to consult an ENT specialist and a neurologist too. At times back and neck problems may persist for years before they really start giving trouble. Chances of TMJ too should be looked into.
Avatar f tn I would recomend you see your Dr asap. With the fever you could have some type of ear infection going on which can cause headaches. The dizziness can be from the ears too. I would try to make an appt. with a Dr. right away. Best wishes, I hope your feeling better soon.
Avatar m tn Sounds like an inner ear infection to me, I would make an appointment to see a doctor if this continues.

Avatar f tn i have had a headache behind my right ear for two days should i be concerned
2017838 tn?1330598150 Thank you so much for your comment In fact, I don't have any problems with my sinus anymore except for the ear popping. The ENT prescribed fluticasone propionate which I have not used until now because I'm concern about the side effects. My question is can the ear popping resolve by itself ?? Without using fluticasone propionate ? Or complications might happen like ear infection if I don't use fluticasone propionate ?
Avatar n tn they sound very much like pressure headaches,which in turn can make you feel very sick and tired,you could also have an ear infection coming you should go to the doctor to get that checked out
Avatar n tn ve also never had an ear infection or problems with my ear. It mainly just feels like a throbbing vein behind my ear. Like I'll put a finger behind both my ears and on my right side it feels like a swollen vein or something and it throbs. But i just looked at the veins in the head and i see that there aren't any veins behind my ear where it hurts so I'm assuming it's a muscle. But i just don't understand why it hurts every single day.
Avatar f tn my lower jaw left side hurts constantly,pain is in my ear, leading to headache-all severe and never totally relenting. what do any of you think is the cause and what can i do to fight it for any relief ? i have no proper sufficient insurance for medical or dental issues. i think there is infection in my brain and i will die very soon.
Avatar m tn s good to hear from you with,especially with an answer to your brain explosion symptoms. If the ear infection has been present since November, it really needs to be evaluated by an ENT. I'm just curious why the MRI did not detect any ear related problem during that time. Nevertheless, it is good that there is already an answer to your problem. Take care and do keep us posted. Will be looking forward to your reply.
Avatar f tn Just an ordinary doctor could tell me that?
Avatar n tn Most importantly you could have a possible inner ear infection, and if you keep having pain in the ear please go to your PC Doctor, and have them look into the ear. If you do have an inner ear infection a the Dr. probably will put you on a proper corse of Antibiotics for 7-10 days. With all this said its very important to remember this is just my opinion only. Ultimately seeing a Dr. if symtoms persist is always your safest, and best choice.
Avatar n tn I have an ear infection and fluid in my ear. My doctor prescribed amoxicillin. Also, Im taking sudafed(nasal decongestant) for the fluid. I took the amox. at 12pm today and the sudafed at 4pm. Right now it is 10:25pm. I have a headache. Im suffering right now from it, what can i take for a headache? Can i take excedrin tension. Thats the only pills helps my headache. Please Help!!!!
Avatar f tn Hi, Thanks for the update. How are you? The ringing, itchiness and pain in your ear may suggest an infection and you may benefit from further evaluation by an ear doctor while the coldness in your hands cam be due to neurological issues such as problems in the nerves or temperature sensors. Check with your doctor for proper evaluation. Take care and hope to hear from you soon.
Avatar f tn Once back home I went to my doctor and he diagnosed an inner ear infection causing the dizziness and it would go away in time. However eleven months down the line it is still there. On a daily basis I feel lightheaded. This can vary from feeling slightly lightheaded and able to carry on with life to feeling dizzy and completely housebound. I have to be very careful not to over do things or it makes my condition worse (e.g I need a lie down after the hoovering).
Avatar n tn The severe headache went away after a week but now (5 weeks later) I still have stiffness in my neck, mild headaches daily, a clogged feeling in my left ear and ringing in my left ear. Could this still have to do with the lumbar puncture? What are your suggestions on this matter.
Avatar f tn I have never had a blocked ear due to wax before, though I am wondering could it be an infection? Am I doing more harm, if it is an infection, but putting in the ear drops to remove the wax? Thanks in advace.

Since I cannot examine you and know other related conditions you may be having, nor is a detailed history possible on net, I have listed the various possibilities that should be looked into.
1527510 tn?1392301344 I don't often post in here, and I am usually more confident in what's wrong when I'm feeling certain symptoms but this I'm not sure about. Just wanted to see if anyone else has an idea since it's the Easter weekend so only urgent out of hours or ER is open. My right ear has been giving me bother for about a week now. Always kind of 'annoying' and full of wax in the morning. I would randomly get itchy/shooting pains through it.
Avatar n tn I started out with a strange feeling in the left side of my head where I have a sensation of fluid and pain in my head. My left ear has been plugged up. When I move my head from side-to-side or right to left is when I feel the sensation. I went to the doctor who checked my ears, and my symptoms. They assumed it was a sinus infection, although I have had no drainage of any mucus from my nose, no congestion, and I have never had a history with sinus infections.
Avatar f tn Ok I took her to the Dr. today. Her BP was 150 over 90. Both times they checked it, it was the same. It didn't concern them. I am no doctor and couldn't even imagine trying to understand everything, but isn't that high? My mother has high BP and is on meds for it. I am really getting concerned now. She also, did blood work and found that her white count was high.
1040373 tn?1273687488 So I've had dizziness for 5 days now. I had a headache Monday night. I get them so often that my sisters call them my "Monday Headache." Nausea and loud ringing in one ear were also added to the mix. I had to go home early yesterday because I felt so lousy. I'm going to my PCP in a few hours. I hope they can tell me what's causing it. I've also fallen down 3 times (including yesterday) in the last month.
