Can cervical disc herniations cause pain in the outer part of the ear?


Question:


Answers:
Oh yes. I had one of these about 5 years ago. I had pains in my chest, my temples and my side. I even had an ultrasound to check for gallstones and turns out it was reflective pain from my neck. I still have shooting pains in my ears, head and arms. Check with your doctor to rule out anything else, but I'd bet on the herniation causing your pain.

Other Answers:
yes, since the nerves that innervate the skin of the face comes off the spinal cord in the cervical region.

That'd be awfully high for that case. It's part of a different nerve system, the cranial nerve serves the ear and the cervix is connected on other lines. So, 99% no.
