I think the ear pain may eventually subside. It may be the aftermath of it all. As long as the drs. are aware of it it should be okay. It may have damaged or interfered with a nerve. I had ear pain prior to my hemiglossectomy and since then I feel very little since all the nerves were damaged during the surgery. I also had perineural involvement so that may also have had something to do with it since the pain radiated along my chin to my ear.

try not to worry for now. Just keep mentioning it if it doesn't clear up. Take care.
