@darlia I had similar symptoms a few years ago swelling and pain under my jaw radiating into my ear. Eventually even my gums hurt. For me it ended up being an impacted salivary gland. It is a little scary because some of these symptoms can also be the symptoms of a heart attack in females. Likely and hopefully your issue is something easily fixed by the doctor, but you need to go see one. Please report back. I am curious what is causing this. Best wishes~K

Hi @darlia- how are you feeling today? Can you call your ENT between now and then to see if you can get in on a cancelation?
Hi Jamie,
Thanks for inquiring. Actually my husband and I had our flu this in Oct.. now we are both having minor symptoms so we are thankful we did!
The ear/throat is ok. In fact it's not bothering me much at all. A little pressure in my ear occasionally is all. I do use CPAP and read that this can be a cause of ear issues so I'm thinking this might be the cause. I'll be getting a hearing test too.
Just keep swimming~Best to you

Thank you for the info. Today not having any symptoms of pain. I do notice a little pressure feeling but the other symptoms not today. I did make an appt with ENT, but the Dr can't get me into the office till Feb 7th.. So between them and now, if it gets worse, I'll prob go to the primary car. They don't know much about it generally though. So what was the treatment for you?
Best to you~Darlia
