What Causes Tingling In Head With Ear Pain?
My head feels tingly and a little pain and its only on the right side.I have been feeling like this for 3 days. I went to the doctor for a sharp stabbing pain in right ear. He said its an outer ear infection and prescribed ear drops. My ear doesn t hurt now as much but my head still has this weird pain and now I am starting to feel it on my right side of my face. I am also starting to feel a little sick now. Running nose and sneezing and slight itch in throat
