Left Side Face Pain

I’m writing this for reference for my kid in the future – in case i’m no longer around and she is experiencing the same symptoms.

Many years ago, I experienced this pain on my left side of my face, nearer to my ears than my nose and I thought I had a toothache. After checking on my tooth, there was nothing rotting or bad at all, so I didn’t know what to think. I took lots of tylenol and advil for the longest time and it didn’t help. One day, I woke up and felt like I might have a cold coming along and took some cold tablets like Berkeley and the pain lessen. I now know that it was a sinus inflammation. Therefore, if you even have pain on the left side of your face or eyes, it may be a sinus infection and not some other thing.
