Sensitivity to drop in temperature, wind, cold temp leads to ear Pain
Has anyone ever had sensitivity to change in temperature, wind, cold weather causing ear pain, head pain, scalp tenderness w pain. As soon as the temp goes below 60 I feel it. My head has to be kept warm. It’s not my body that is cold. I do have a problem with my neck, that some times gives me pain radiating down behind my ear down my shoulder through my arm. This started after my stroke in 2009. My stroke started with sensation of blood pulsating in both my ears. Next day carotid dissection. Nothing was ever done about my tinnitus or this issue. Thank you and God bless all of you wonderful people!

stp, Praying for you. I am so sorry you are battling this.
My Mama had a lot of ear pain and she would put cotton in both ears when it was cold outside. Do you think that might help?
Sometimes these old remedies work best.
Blessings & Prayers to you....

2 ReactionsI also have severe ear pain when it’s cold or windy. I’ve never had it evaluated. I just always wear hats or earmuffs. I would be interested to know if you find an answer

1 ReactionSometimes I have a slight popping sound and then pain in my right ear. My primary has prescribed singular (montelukast) for allergies as I am sensitive to antihistamines, and this seems to help. You mentioned tinnitus, it's my understanding there is not a cure for this. Is this correct?
Good luck.

I notice that with my autoimmune condition I am more sensitive to my environment than ever. My allergies are bad news and I am sure that they affect my neuropathy. It is not cold out today but there is a breeze which spreads allergens around. I also feel more sensitive to cold and find myself needing extra layers. I have resumed taking alpha lipoic acid--it is said to be a help for neuropathy. Autumn is a pretty time of year but can be rough for sinus or allergy sufferers.
@arcuri24 Thank you for your reply. I wish you the best of luck, and I am going to research alpha lipoic acid.

I do that too! I have an ear plug that was made, but i still have these symptoms. Thank you for your kind words. Sorry, for your mom’s passing. God bless.
