What Causes Laryngitis With Ear, Throat And Body Ache?
Hi, I was out for an evening of drinks after work feeling fine, as soon as I got back I felt tired and had a throat ache. For 2 days I had extreme fatigue and had aches all over my body and back. Had a terrible throat ache. It seemed to get better after 2 days, so I went out again, then I started getting strange neck stiffness so that it was hard to move. I felt like I d wake up having to wear a neck brace, instead I woke up with no voice! Now it s 2 days with no voice, I have a dry cough, a scratchy throat, and a terrible ear ache on one ear which feels like the pressure u feel as ur taking off on a plane. How did this happen n what must I do?
