Earache ?: 28y female has constant pain in region of one ear/jaw for two days. No mention whether pain is elicited by palpation or opening and closing of jaw. The symptoms suggest concern for otitis. A doctor needs to inspect the ear for infection. Dental infections also of concern, as is Temporomandibular Disorder, TMD, which becomes highly suspect if this discomfort becomes chronic.
