A member asked:
I get intense pain and swelling in the tragus of my left ear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
TMJ Dysfunction: You may have either an infection of the tragus or inflammation of the jaw joint which is just underneath the tragus. Seek the attention of an otolaryngologist. He/she will be able to differentiate the cause for you.
