What Causes Right-sided Nodule On Neck And Radiating Pain From Eye To Ear?

I have a 4.7 centimeter nodule on my right side, I ve had blood work and its fine as well as my biopsy. However it keeps growing. I m exhausted all the time and have not lost any weight in the eight years since I had my daughter, typically I m a very thin person. Did not receive this well and I have pain that radiates all the way at the right side of my head into my eye and ear, it also moves to the middle of my throat which makes it difficult to swallow and sometimes breathe.. I ve had this for 14 years. The pain has been with in the past 7 months

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern . As per your query you have right-sided nodule on neck and radiating pain from eye to ear . There are various reason for bruxism but the main reasons is stress ,anxiety , misalignment of teeth , lymphadenopathy and sleeping problems . The pain is never pinpoint it radiate to surroundings . I would suggest you to :

- Keep your stress level low by doing exercises ,yoga or meditation , this alone can solve your entire problem.
- Continue taking ibuprofen .
- Give warm compresses to face.
- Take over the counter sleeping pills .

If problem persist for a week the you have to consult ENT specialist for proper diagnosis of condition. Dentist may correct misalignment (if it is a problem) of your teeth by referring you to orthodontist , may prescribe muscle relaxant or give you night guard .

If there will be no dental problem then consult ENT specialist . ENT specialist may perform certain test to check ear infection (otitis media) or lymphadenopathy. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course.


Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
