Hi my name is Elsa Glotzer . I am experiencing a pounding pain in the right side of my face near the ear.
It goes away when I take 200mg Advil. after 4 hours it returns again . Please advise what should I do.
Previewsly I had a sinus infection and excess accumulation of serumen in both ears. My ENT doctor did and x-ray and drained both ears. Friday I am scheduled for a Brain cat-scan. What should I do in the mean time?
