[|Human|] I have jaw, ear and neck pain on my left side. My teeth are hurting in the back on that side as well and it hurts way in the back of my mouth and tongue on same side. Ibuprofen not working much. Have had this for a little over 24 hours. Not a sore throat though but swallowing is hard on the one side. Under the jaw is painful too. What can be causing this and can I wait to get checked out tomorrow or should I go to ER? I am 42 years old and female.
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for the query. The type of pain that you are explaining can be either due to any deeply decayed tooth in the left back side of jaw that can cause radiating pain to neck, ear and jaw. Other cause can be wisdom tooth related problem like Peritonitis.If the pain is along the course of nerve then it can also be due to nerve related pain or Trigeminal Neuralgia. So my suggestion is to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated so that appropriate x-rays can be done for confirmation. For now, you can take higher painkillers like Tramadol or Motorola and take soft meals. Hope this helps. Regards. Chat Doctor.
