Since November I ve been having pain/discomfort on the left side of my neck. It feels to be right under my ear and near my jaw. I can feel something is there when i swallow and under the back of my tongue. I went to an ENT, and she said i needed my tonsils removed, which was done February 16th. At my follow up after surgery, Dr. said everything looked ok, but I m still having that sensation/pain. Its giving my migraines now. The ENT doctor thinks it s my TMJ. I m asking what it could be, because it doesn t hurt when i open my mouth or chew. The only part that hurts is whatever it is feels like pressure pushing the inside of my jaw outward.
