What Is The Cause For Swelling On My Neck Area And Ear Lobe With Allergies?

pain and slight swelling on my right neck area below my ear lobe. I do have allergies but have never gotten ear infections. it is tender when I open my jaw wide...and almost felt "locked" earlier today..only on tht side.

I worked out hard today with weights...and it feels like a muscle pull. hurts to touch.

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
As you history of having allergy, it might have exacerbated leading to pain in the neck region and in the ears.
Infection in the throat may lead to ear by the tube connecting between throat and the ears.
Infection in the ear may be presenting with ear pain.As you are doing gym and muscle building exercise during the illness you will be exhausted soon.
Neck exercise may have pulled your neck muscle. You need to undergo physical examination to know what exactly causing pain in the ear and whether it is a symptoms of allergy or not.
Thank you.
