Having Sinus Drainage, Ears Hurt On Swallowing. Pain In Neck While Touching. Possible Problem?
I have been having sinus drainage the past 4 days and now my ears hurt whenever I swallow , especially the right side. I noticed past night when I was showering that there s a spot on the right side of my neck that hurts when I touch it. On a scale from 1-10 I d say its a 6. I don t feel a lymph node there when I touch it, I only feel muscle. Any ideas what the problem is?

Most sinus infections are due to virus and can take 2 weeks to clear up. You can also have facial pain, sore throat cough headache. If you begin to experience high fever do not wait to see your dr. Otherwise you may try sinus rinses, decongestants, steam and cool mist humidifiers
