Suggest Remedy For Ear Swelling
Last night my right side of my bottom jaw near my ear became swollen. I took allergy pills and iced it thinking it could be an allergic reaction. However it happended today and the swollen area is tender and hurts. What could this be and what can I do in the mean time?
