One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

[Cassie Thompson]

It's been two weeks since I had the constant thumping and ringing with n my ear. Today it's hitting me full force. I have severe neck pain on the left side of my ear, that radiates up to the part behind my ear. My jaw is sore and stiff. Saw a different ent and he told me to make a appointment with a chirorpactor.

I know it can be worse, but its just driving me crazy. I'm scared it's something I'm going to have to live with for the rest of my life.

You could have a ear infection brewing causing pain in your Eustachian tube and jaw area as right by your middle ear .
