Could Severe Pain In Jaw And Head Be Due To Streptococcus Pneumoniae?

I went to the doctor today and was told that I have strep pnemoniae (unsure of correct spelling). My biggest concern is how severe my head and jaw hurt. When I cough, my head hurts severely. My jaw constantly hurts. Im concerned that it is more than strep. my throat does not hurt.

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
Jaw pain is not because of pneumoniae. This requires evaluation by ENT doctor to find out the underlying and treatment accordingly.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
