Title: Earache
Post by: sunshine16 on April 29, 2006, 10:13:00 pm

First of all, I want to say thank you to everyone, thank you for always helping me out answer some of my questions. 


I'm having earache right now.  NO it's not the AN side, it's my good ear!    And sometimes I hear ringing on it also. It comes and goes.  Is this something I have to worry about?  The pain is more like a pulse and it's not an all day.  I can't wait to see my doctors....  Please help guys....

Hi Sunshine - I  get ringing/buzzing in my good ear frequently. I also have intermitent pain, in fact I have had it for 2 days and I know it is allergy related. I also get a crackling sound in that ear and my doctor said it is my eustachian tube.

Are you still feeling the tingling sensation on your lip?

take care

Yes, I still do feel the tinglilng on my lip and sometimes on my cheek.  But most of the time my lip is sensitive to touch?

Have you tried taking any decongesants or cold medicines to see if that helps?   Your eustachian might be blocked.     Do you have allergies?    It has been a bad allergy season this year.   
Hope something can get figured out for you.                        Cheryl R.

Sunshine I have tinnitus in my good ear which the ent didn't know why. 
I am also suffering with a sinus infection and allergies which causes both ears to have pressure in them.  LIke you said it's an intermittent quick owey.  I'd take an antihistamine and see if it helps.  If it's not better by tomorrow I'd call the doctor.

We'll answer any question you have! 
Hope it gets better!!
