OT: strange ear pain after dental appointment
I had a dentist's appointment today - just cleaning - nothing else. Ever since then I've had this stabbing pain around my left ear. It's not actually in the ear like an ear infection but just sort of vaguely around the ear, maybe even in my neck or head. It stabs so hard I wince and then it goes away for a while and then stabs again. Believe it or not, if I move my tongue a certain way this triggers it. I suppose if it continues I'll have to call the dentist and/or doctor, but has anyone else had anything like this? It's so strange. I don't feel like I'm coming down with a cold or anything like that. And since it started right after I left the dentist it seems too soon for some kind of infection I picked up.
