I have a lot of pain under my tongue (left side only) that continues down into my throat besides the adams apple. I thought it might be an abscessed tooth, so I went to a dentist. It isn't an abscess at all. The salivary glands on that side aren't swollen either. The pain is barely noticeable at times, and at other times it is excruciating. Also, if there were salivary stones, they would have shown up on the X-rays. Any other ideas?

I have already seen one doctor and am not willing to pay another until I have some idea of whether it's a big deal or not. So far I have only gotten one answer that is decent...

any other symptoms? it would be very difficult to diagnose from a distance. Please look for a doctor, ear nose & throat would be the most reccommended.

Maybe auro-mandibular nueralgia? I have occasional flare ups from time to time- basically the nerves around your jaw/ear get all in a tizzy- it can feel like a toothache/sinus headache/earache or what you are describing right now- or like all at the same time- its just a random wild guess...

I think it would be a good idea to see a doctor - either your family doctor or a specialist for ear, nose and throat. All the best. I hope you will feel much better soon!

Go see a doctor....internal medicine doctor....
ENT doctor can help too. They are your last result.
Do you remember you where in your last relationship?
Or had contact with someone that has that infection.
It sound contagious. Better check it out fast.
