What Causes Pain On The Right Side Of The Head?
Question: I feel a pain on the right side of my head above the ear when swallowing. Had it for about 2 weeks.
Brief Answer:
TMJ dysfunction very probably.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
In my opinion, in your case it is necessary to consider disorders related to temporomandibulary joint (TMJ).
These conditions include disc displacement, degenerative joint disease, trauma (even mild one), etc.
It is necessary to get evaluated by an ENT Doctor and by imaging of this region (CT scan, MRI) in order to get a correct diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
