What Causes Numbness And Tingling Sensation In The Left Ear?
Hello, I have a history of ear infections and ear problems. Recently, within the last couple of weeks, I have been experiencing numbness, and almost a tingling feeling around my left ear. I did see a doctor about 2 weeks ago who said that it was the start of an inner ear infection. I was prescribed drops but they didn t really seem to work. I was just checking in to see what it could be.
