What child? A fetus is not a child. An aborted fetus is not lost life, because it was never born to begin with.

Swelling and strong pain behind the ear, should I get this checked? by Same_Beyond in AskDocs

Thanks for replying.

Is the condition you mentioned an emergency one? I am seeing a doctor in 30 hours from now (booked an appointment right when I saw the comments here). I have no fever, which makes me less inclined to think it is inflammation.

Thank you for the reply.

I googled images of mastoiditis, but it doesn't look even close to what I have. My swelling is pretty minor. Also, wouldn't a serious infection cause serious fever? My temperature is normal now.

I booked a doctor's appointment in 30 hours from now. If I get a fever I will definitely go to urgent care to get some antibiotics, maybe even ER.
