Having pain on left side of cheek bone and under comes and goes are right side also and jaw sometimes is in pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sinus infection: The "cheek bone" is the maxilla. The maxillary sinus is within this bone. It's possible that you may be having sinus pressure/pain related to a sinus infection. Jaw pain is not caused by sinus issues.
