The left side of my face under my eye, by my cheekbone, really hurts frequently. What could it be?

It sounds like the problem could be sinus-your maxillary sinuses to be exact(below your eye).  Its uncommon but possible to only have 1 sided sinus pressure. Ive examined many patients with sinus congestion and they describe the same pressure,"face falling off when they lean forward" symptoms. Possibly an ENT-(ear nose and throat  dr)would be a good start-they deal with cranial/sinus disorders. At least a specialist like that instead of a primary might have more insight  :)

Visit the doctor now. Are you still reading? You should be there now. Hurry. No 18 year old should be hurting. Get it looked at now

I think you need to see a doctor.  It could be a nerve issue or muscle or both, since the nerves and muscles work together.  An opthomologist is who you want to see.

It could just be an ingrown hair or pimple.  If it still hurts and gets worse, go to a Doctor.  Trust me, they have seen plenty private parts!  If it makes you feel better, go to a female physician.

You should probably go to the doctor.\n\nIt could be just allergies or sinus, or it could be more serious.

What you are describing is called milia. A pluged pore that the skin has grown over it. Trapping it. A lot of women get this under the eye. Too much eye cream? Do you wear glasses? Sweat can cause them as well. I suggest you go to a licenced esthetician for a facial. Sometimes they are removeable. Change up the routine. Make sure you are getting your makeup off well.

Sounds like you have a dry socket.  Since it's Sunday night, let me offer the following suggestion for tonight:\n\nBite on a moist piece of gauze exactly the way you did after your tooth was removed.  Keep changing the gauze as needed.  This will keep the air and saliva from getting in there and that is the cause of a lot of the pain.  You COULD get some benzocaine 20% (OraJel, etc) and put a dab on the gauze where it will touch the socket if plain gauze doesn't stop the pain.\n\nOf course, you already know that you need to see the dentist for proper treatment and best relief.

Oh man you need to get them out ASAP.  Seriously, its only going to get worse.  I remember one time the whole side of my face was swollen, I couldn't eat, talk, I could barely even swallow.  Go to the dentist as soon as you can, it'd be the best bet.  So yeah, the pain is normal, and it sucks.  Good luck!

if it hurts really bad you could have dry socket. it happens when you smoke or drink from a straw or basically suck anything too hard. you need to go back to your dentist, because it won;t just go away.

I get knots on my left side.  It feels as if its under my shoulder blade.  I don't know if it is the same thing, but my massouse decided that I was sleeping wrong.  I slept with one arm under my pillow and it obviously kept my muscles tight up there.  I also lift my toddler everyday which doesn't help,  To help myself, I've just tried to relax my upper back and neck everytime I feel myself holding my shoulders up.  It's working so far.

sounds like pink eye (conjunctivitis) just go to your pharmacy and get some boric acid add warm water to it and rinse your eye.  be sure to wear sun glasses this will help with the pain.  If this does not work, go to your doctor he will give you a stronger perscription but will also contain boric acid.

Go to the doctor, you could possibly be experiencing the early onset of Bell's Palsy. It can eventually paralyze one side of your face and make your eye and mouth droop. The doc can give you an RX for a steroid pill that will help but you need to to get to the doc asap. If you treat it early enough it will go away but if not the damage will be permanent.\n\nRush to the doc, seriously.\n\nGood luck!

Glands are usually ALWAYS a little swollen when you have a cold, are sneezing, etc... the way you find about it is when you touch right below your cheekbone and it hurts.

If you locate the notch in the eyebrow, above the eye, you will find it to be quite tender. This is the nerve which is involved with the lids and sensory aspect of that part of the face. If it is irritated (inflamed) you will notice a tic..You will find a corresponding tenderness at the base of the skull. Indicating there is an inflammatory process involved. You may obtain relief by stretching the tight muscle on the one side of the neck. You can determine which side, just by rotating the head both ways.

The left side worries me. It could be the medication. If it persists then go to urgent care.
