Suggest Remedy For Ear & Throat Discomfort

for a few years now I have this feeling only on my right side of my throat, it feels like a bone stuck there, even hurts my ear sometimes down my neck. One dr says I should take out my tonsils another says I dont need to. One even told me that it could be cause by my teeth, but my teeth dont hurt.
