A member asked:
Can shooting ear pain indicate a tumor?"
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: Although pain in the ear may represent a tumor it is more likely to be something non-cancerous as the cause. I would recommend that you speak with your primary physician to have him evaluate by looking into your ear. If needed you could be referred to a ear, nose and throat specialist for further evaluation.
