Just wondering if these symptoms are related to having Bell's Palsey , which he was diagnosed with 10 days ago.

Sharp head pains - on the side, top, and back of head.

Cold feeling in the inside of the back of the head.

Difficulty swallowing foods like french fries, or pop-corn.

If your child has been diagnosed with Bell's palsy, he should be immediately checked and treated for Lyme disease which is the most common cause for this in my experience.
