Hi,

Continuous pain on the left side of the head suggests inflammation on either side of parotid glands. Most Common causes for parotid pain will be inflammation after infection or persistence of the virus in the parotid gland. so have complete profile and diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
