Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Swelling With Mild Pain On Left Side Of Head?
Hello I am a 27 yo female no serious health problems. Recently the left side of my head has been swollen just above my ear. It hurts occasionally to touch it. I have recently had a increasingly high amount of migraines. The has been this way about 3 weeks. No otc mess help and ice packs don t help the swelling. Should I see a doctor or be considered? Any thought as to what it could be?
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that ideally it should be lymph nodes which are harmless if not increasing in size. If no medication is helping then consult a neurologist personally for proper treatment .
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards Dr Bhanu Partap
