@stacybf Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, a place to give and get support.

I'm sorry to hear about your son's symptoms. The internet says stylohyoid ossification is caused by trauma of the cervical and throat region. May I ask if there was an accident or did your son have tonsil surgery?

You said that you were looking for a physician to work with. May I ask if you live near a teaching or research hospital or if your son is able and willing to travel for care? This may help members like @abbyco @sethm007 @christina61 @nrd1 @eastmas1 understand and support you in your search.
