sore jaw under ear

I have a white sore in my mouth. Way in the back on the area where the top of my jaw intersects with the bottom of my jaw on the left side. I have had it for literally at least 3 months and it will not heal. It hurts so bad. The sore itself hurts, but it is making my whole jaw ache. Also my left ear is swollen at the opening. It is almost swelled shut. I am not sure if they are related. I do not have insurance so that is why I have not seen a physician. I do not even have a regular doctor.

Hi, just last night, I was laying in bed, and rolled to my right side, and as I turned my head over on my pillow, I noticed it was painful. Today. I've noticed it all day, there is a slight lump on the right side under my jaw. It is moveable, and isn't excruciating just yet. When I apply pressure, or face my head downwards, it gets very sore. I am very curious to know if this is heard of commonly or not, and if it is a serious problem. Thank you!

it can occur on just one side. Press under the corner of your jaw (by your ear) to feel if it is unusually tender. If so, use a massage vibrator from behind the ear, to down under the jaw, working your way to where the clavicle meets the base of the neck next to the esophagus. I tend to see this in people that have stress build up or too much caffeine in their diet. You should see swelling (which is probably just the muscle in a contracted state) go down in a few days or sooner.

e 3 i got sore lyumph node on the left side of my neck , behind the ear and it goes down to the neck . Then i got sore throat on the left side . These symptoms comes and goes. In the morning when i get up sysmptoms n soreness is not there and then comes during the day.... i went to the ENT specialist he said i dont hAve sore throat i have sinus problem . He gave me some antibiotics, nasal spray, sinus medicine .

and become sore/painful when left in this state (yes, it can occur on just one side and progress down the shoulder and in some cases all the way to the fingers). Press under the corner of your jaw (by your ear) to feel if it is unusually tender.

I have pain on the right side right under my jaw joint, where my neck starts. I also have this unbearable ear pain in my right ear. It feels like it's full of pressure. Can somebody tell me what it is! I don't know how to fix it!

yes ok thanks ,,,I did not want to think it was tmj because I have no problem chewing ,,,I get achy in the area of the jaw joint at times due to the gland being sore ,, but not clicking or locking happens ,, soreness under ear ,, when it it first occurred it felt like I had a bruise on side of face at jaw joint to my ear up to around my temple ,, seemed more like an infection because in middle of sleep I kept waking from throat irritation like something was draining from my ear to my throat from

I have had some of the same issues, swollen lymph nodes under my Jaw, ear and and near my temple the doctor had put me on antibiotics and they all went down, I had it another time but it was swollen on my forhead and down the side by my temple and ear and jaw once more but it looked like I had a scab just above my hairline where it was red and getting bigger so he perscribed antibiotic cream and it went away. He never told me what it was. Is this all happening on one side of your body?

I have heard the jaw shares the same nerve with the ear. If the TMJ is sore/spastic that the pain can be referred to the ear. Does anyone have experience with this situation? I also have pulsatile tinnitus (ringing in the ear to the rhythm to my heart but don't believe it is related as I have damaged my ears from earplugs/ipod music.

I sometimes have like a flare up when it will be terribly painful (like a headache but more in my jaw and around ears) and the next day it feels like a giant bruise all around jaw, ears, and to almost corner of my eyes. If you bite down and feel where jaw comes together near ear, it is incredibly sore. And one last thing, it feels like my top vertabre in my neck is really out. The bones hurt. Thanks for any help!

I have this bump under the skin on my jaw bone below my ear. It is about 1/2 inch wide, there is no discoloration, it feels hard and a little moveable under the skin. It feels like a bruise, has a very slight throbbing and is a little sore to the touch. So far I have noticed it for two weeks in which it has gotten slowly bigger.

the neck pain was around the back of my jaw just under my left ear. this was due to confirmed swollen lymph nodes in my neck. this was causing discomfort and difficulty hearing in my left ear at times. since then the sore throat and drainage have come and gone very frequently. the neck pain eventually faded, but i feel it every now and then. i asked my doctor about it 2 weeks ago. i had my ear and throat checked by a doctor, the doctor saw no infection in my ear, but did see fluid.

No pain or change in size for at least 20 years. I found it years ago when massaging a sore jaw joint. It sort of feels like it's in a tendon and in front of the Tragus. I have TMJ, use a night guard and actually broke 2 teeth loose from the bone about 6 years ago when I fell asleep during the Superbowl and wasn't wearing my mouthguard.

i yawned and felt a pop below my right ear. now my bottom jaw really hurts and it feels like my mouth is tired. it feels like i have been chewing gum all day and i haven't. does amyone know what this might be? and anything to do about it?

Of course I have the jaw pain and ear pain associated with the biting down on my jaw. But I have never had muscle twitches in my neck. Anyone have any answers?

When I open my mouth to chew my left side of my jaw hurts up near the ear, I do get a lot o colds and sore throats, would it be a tumor tho?

I also have a plugged right ear. have been to a reg dr and both say my throat is not sore and my ear not infected. Do have a dental appt.

Hi everyone. I woke up this morning and noticed a small lump under my left ear. It's between my ear and the top of the jaw line. Should I be worried for another infection? Does anyone know of any possibilities it could be?

Following this i went to the doctor 2 days ago because of a sore throat and ear pain. Doctor gave me zpack and ear drops for the infection. During the examination he also noticed a small swollen lymph node under the left jaw on the neck and this made me very stressed. I dont have fever, just stiff neck muscles and tightness in throat(could also be due to anxiety and stress) 1) Please suggest when should i take my next hiv test and what kind of hiv test? 2) And will this be a conclusive test?

kind of sensitive to the touch, but there was no bruising no swelling so temperature change and it went from above my right eyebrow across to my temple and down under my jaw line. Even my eye hurt a little. The whole right side of my face basically. Consequently I also woke up with a several cold sores in the corner which hurt worse than any I've had. Yesterday it felt the same but around my cheek and jaw it started feeling warm to touch.

Could that be what I am feeling? Also on the left side of my neck right under my left ear is tender and feels like a slight lump which I am thinking is a swollen lymph node. I do not feel the same thing on the right side under my ear. I am worried and scared that I may have caught something.

i have a lump under my ear behind the corner of my jaw andit hurts all the way to the front of my ear. not in it the front. and its way under the skin what can i do?
