Should I be alarmed???

Ok so it going on 5 days now since I've had these problems on the left side of my faces. My left ear is aching and the left side of my neck keeps putting off theses stabbing pain.The left side of my mouth has also has gone numb and my left eye won't close and I've been having problems seeing out of it, and not to mention I can't taste anything which is starting to become really depressing.

I kinda wanna go to the ER because I know I won't be able to see a doctor anytime soon, but I don't want to alarm anyone because I don't want to get there and have them say that there nothing wrong.. =( idk

    Maybe your area has a walk in clinic (Not to be confused with a free clinic) or an urgent care facility. These are better because if it isn't an emergency then they will just see you as a regular patient, prescribe you what is needed, and you don't take up space at the ER for people who really need to be there and you don't worry everyone else around you.

    I'm not sure where you live, but I would think that such a place exists.

    also, if you don't have it, i would go anyway. or call around and find a doctor who can see you.
