I'm experiencing something strange with my left ear. Occasionally, it feels numb and there's this odd tingling sensation. Sometimes it even spreads to the left side of my face. What could this be? Should I be concerned?

I'm feeling some tightness in a portion of my head, just above my left ear, and it's been going on for about a year now. When I massage that area, it seems to relax. I'm a bit concerned and wondering what might be causing this. Could it be something I should look into further?

The tightness you're feeling above your left ear could be related to muscle tension, stress, or even a tension headache, especially since massaging the area provides relief. However, if the sensation persists or worsens, or if other concerning symptoms arise, its a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment.

I'm really worried because my mom has been dealing with some kind of disease for over a year now. We've been to so many physicians and psychiatrists, and we've done various tests, but everything comes back normal. It's just so confusing, and we're not sure what steps to take next. She's currently taking medicines like Redion XT, Panor DSR, Etizolam, PKimitrip, Eteolam 0.5, and Lozipam 1, but nothing seems to work. I'm desperate for some advice on what might actually help her or even a recommendation for a doctor who could be the right fit to understand her health issue. Could anyone guide us?
