What Causes Itching Sensation And Swelling Of Ears After Taking Flonase For Redness In Throat?

I have a sore, red throat and difficulty with swallowing all of my food. When I take Flonase and gargle with salt water, my throat is not sore but still red.Today, the inside of my ears started to itch. One ear feels as if it may be swollen on the inside. Any idea what I may have? I thought it might be allergies, but not being able to swallow my food completely bothers me.I m not running a fever nor do I have body aches.
