What Causes Pressure On The Left Side Of The Neck?
I feel pressure down the left side of my neck from below my left earlobe going down an forward. I also have a headache on the left side of my head in a curve from my left eyebrow up and over to the back of my left ear. I have been hearing a constant ringing in my ears. It started like crickets but is now more of a constant sound.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pressure on the left side of the neck . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like muscle spasm acid reflux . There can be other reasons also like sore throat , angina and tonsilltis . I would suggest you to consult general physician for proper examination . Doctor may take history and order endoscopy , blood test , x-ray of upper respiratory track . Doctor may prescribe H2 blockers , proton pump inhibitor or may refer you to cardiologist or ENT specialist in case of angina or sore throat respectively . For now do warm saline gargles and avoid eating spicy , acidic and heavy meal .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
