Avatar n tn At first I thought it was a toothache because my lower back jaw and my ear hurt as well. I can barely touch the side of my neck and if feels like I have a sore throat when I swallow. This goes on for about a week and them the symptoms disappear. Then I will get the same pain back right around a month later. This has been going on for about 6 month now? What is causing this pain in my neck?
Avatar f tn hi, was reading all letters, god , i going through the hell at the moment, i lost my husband just 16 month ago, to the cancer, now i m so scared of everything.
Avatar f tn It has now been a month that my neck glands and my throat glands have been swollen steady. It is not sore, the only pain I feel is when they start to grow bigger, when ever i'm chewing and swallowing it will feel like a pinch sometimes, but not always. I went to my doctor early this week, but he's not sure whether to put my on antibotics for 2 weeks or not because he thinks it could either make it better or make me feel worse.
Avatar n tn I have also had constantly swollen glands at the back left side of the neck and near my left armpit since fall. The upper part of my neck swells up a lot, too, sort of like a huge double-chin running from one end of the jaw to the other. My throat feels tight, like everything inside is swollen and pushing against each other. It doesn't feel like strep and doesn't really hurt. I have been on two different antibiotics -- cephalexin and ???

Avatar n tn I had a heavy cough about 3 weeks ago that has since faded. Since then, I have experienced moving discomfort from my left ear, to the angle of my jaw on the left side, and now stiffness / general discomfort in my neck under my jaw. My throat is pink, but tonsils are swollen. The left side of my tonsil wall is wavy, instead of the normal smooth. The top of one of the "waves" on the left side has a small white crest that looks like a cancor sore.
Avatar n tn I am not sure where the glands are swollen. Neck lymph nodes can be the result of tonsillitis, pharyngitis (infection of upper throat), infection in mouth, caries in tooth, internal ear infection, outer ear infection, eczema, dermatitis, dandruff, breast cancer, fungal infection, other cancers like lymphoma etc. If you had flu like symptoms initially then it could be due to infectious mononucleosis too.
Avatar f tn I guess i forgot to say that my lymph glads were swolen until my stress went away, but mine were only swolen on one side. I never had any swolen in my pelvic area, but on the left side of my neck, and it was sore to the touch too.
Avatar n tn About five days ago, I noticed one of the glands on the left side of my neck was a little sore and swollen. The next two days, I woke up with a bit of a headache and that heavy feeling in your eyes. I started noticing a bit of a fever - about 99.5. Now for the last two days, I have had up to 100.5 with white spots on my left tonsil and some pressure in my left ear. All the swelling/pressure is on the left side of my head/neck - but there's no pain or soreness in my throat.
Avatar n tn Are you concered that you may have HIV? If so what was your risk?
1626225 tn?1306459118 I have sharp pains like lighting on the left side of my head from bottom of my neck where the glands are to behind the ear and some times they are so sharp that it leaves the area kind of numb. They last about 2 seconds. My neck is very tender and the doctor thinks that it might be related to my acid reflux problems. can anyone help me.
1327326 tn?1275058023 ve been like this for almost 5 days now. My neck is very sore on my left side and very lightly on my right side. It's hard to sleep comfortable at nights and I'm living on Ibuprofen. I take 400-1000 mgs at a time and I feel okay for about 6-8 hours then I have to take it again. I don't actually have a sore throat, it is my neck and my head that hurts. I have no feeling of congestion or any symptom of allergies or cold.
Avatar m tn I have had an extremely sore neck on the left side for the last 24 hours, it has gotten worse in the last 6 and is also accompanied by a very sore throat and difficulty swallowing. Anelgesic and over the counter anti-inflammatory has been ineffective. Pain woke me from my sleep. Neck is extremely tender as is throat and glands are visibly swollen, particularly on the left. Have not had any trauma to the neck but a few days ago the right side was almost as painful.
Avatar f tn For several months now I have noticed a lump on the right side of my neck. I initially thought it was a knot in my muscle, but now I have swollen neck glands with no sore throat.
Avatar m tn Soft dime size bulge on left side of neck, below ear about 2 inches and center from front to back. It is under the skin and on top of neck muscles/nerves. It's stationary on the outer muscles with no pain. Only appeared over last 24 hours. Wasn't there when showering after work last night but was tonight. Any ideas what this may be or how serious it is? 31/W/M smoker.... Thanks A LOT!!!
Avatar n tn Firstly, it could be a milder type of infectious mononucleosis in which there’s fever, sore throat and swollen neck glands. It is usually a self limiting illness. It is caused by a virus. The second possibility is sialadenitis which means inflammation of the salivary glands present beneath the jaw line. I’ll advise you to consult an ENT specialist who can give you a better idea after the examination. It’s good that your blood reports and thyroid profile is okay. I hope this helps.
Avatar m tn I also forgot to mention that all the glands on the left side of my neck are enlarged. When I feel the glands in and around the rear of my neck and throat, they are much larger then that of the right side by comparison. I sometimes feel discomfort around the left side of my trachea. I'm not sure if the neck pain is related to the glands but I thought I would mention it. About 5 days ago now I had a very acute attack.
Avatar f tn Everything seemed to get better for a little while, but then the symptoms came back (and the swelling of the glands stayed, had never left). I went to the ENT, he felt everything and confirmed the gland in my neck was swollen (cervical node), and put a little tube through my nose to check my throat. Said he could see no sign of anything wrong, but he did prescribe amoxicillan for seven days in case of an infection.

Avatar n tn I have muscle tightness almost like the muscles are locked up on the left side of my body and right foot. I also have a sensation of the tightness/pulling in the left posterior part of my head and behind my left eye. At the area I have the tightness in my feet (arch) are lumps my doctor said where due to tighness in my calf muscles similar to Dupuytren’s Contracture in the hands. I was dx with cervical radiculopathy with mild central disc herniation.
Avatar f tn They started at the end of May, (mostly on the left side) an attack weekly, sometimes up to 4 in a week. The last one was 2 weeks ago. After the attacks, I would have one sided throat pain when swallowing, Eustachian tube hurt, some ear pain when swallowing.
Avatar f tn My daughter is 20 and for a few days has had very sore lower gums, yesterday she woke up to very swollen and painful glands on one side under her chin , she went to the drs who gave her antibiotics said it could be an infection of her gums, today she is so much pain in her neck and jaw, she's away at uni so I am an anxious mother worried could this be more serious?
Avatar n tn Also, my neck hurts and is sore...i can't really classify it as a sore throat or just sore neck/throat muscles.
Avatar n tn After I finished doing that, I still felt like I had to vomit, but without purging. I felt the side of my neck and my right gland was about the size of a baseball. It was painful to touch like I pulled a muscle. My husband took me to the ER to get evaluated and the doctor tried to tell me it was a dental problem. But it just happened suddenly after purging!
