A member asked:
Swollen mastoid bone and pain and discomfort in lower jaw/left face please im worried this might be a ear infection and those suck?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You probably should have it evaluated so you could be on antibiotics as soon as possible. You could not have that diagnosed without evaluation.
