Could someone help me please?
I have a cold. Not a bad one though. Its
been about 3 days now. I have just been
drinking hot tea. Havent taken any
medicine. Now suddenly I have this pain
in my ear since the past one hour. Its
just in my right ear. When I try to pull
my ear lobe, it doesnt hurt more. So, I
think its not an ear infection. Is this
kind of ear pain/ache common during
common-cold?
Hey, I had this too about 2 weeks ago. I
actually thought I was getting a cold
because I developed the sore throat and it
definitely felt like post nasal drip. I
had the ear ache, though, and my glands
behind my jaw weren't enlarged but also
felt sore. But when the "cold" wasn't
developing into anything for a week, I
went to my doctor's and he said I had a
blockage between my right nostral and my
right ear. It wasn't an infection yet,
but it may have developed into one.
He gave me antibiotics even though he said
it could've been bacterial (which the
antibiotics would help) or viral (in which
they wouldn't) but I felt results
immediatly.
'course I did develope a cold a week later
since my family was all sick. Go figure,
eh?
Hope this helped. Feel better!
