What Causes Severe Headache And Sore Next To Ear On The Face?
Hello! Thank you for asking on HCM! Regarding your concern, your symptoms may be related to inflammation (like temporal arteritis) or infection. Have you measured your body temperature during these days? I recommend consulting with the GP for a careful physical examination and some lab tests : - a complete blood count for infection - inflammation tests (fibrinogen, PCR, sedimentation rate) - fasting glucose - blood electrolytes. A brain CT scan may be necessary to exclude possible intracranial lesions, if suspicions are raised after the above tests. Hope to have been helpful! Best wishes, Dr. Aida
