I have not had the ear pain and sorry you are experiencing that. I do have trouble swallowing sometimes and choke a lot...

That deals with dysphagia. I've had that before too and it's horrible and I still also choke a bit on liquids and sometimes foods just like my throat doesn't want to react as fast as it should to stuff coming down to be swallowed for consumption.

I had severe ear pain and right facial numbness . It was trigeminal neuralgia. Have a session at cranial nerve 5. Check with your neurologist. Hope you feel better!

Dear thegreattaggini, I
I have seen your post and it was very interesting to read it as i have the same issue. I went to the ENT because of sharp pains in my left ear. There was no infection.They couldnt find it. 4 weeks ago one night the pain in my left ear was so intensive and i had even pain in my left side of my tongue. I could not touch my left side of face otherwise i have triggered the pain. I can also trigger the pain after eating food. At the hospital they diagnosis GLOSSOPHARNGEAL NEURALGIA. My MRT was clean and also the Liqor water. No neurological deficit has been found. I am still dealing with this problem. Is there anybod who deals with this issue? I would be very happy for every feedback. Thank you so much
