I'm just wondering if anyone has had any
experience or if anyone knows anything
about the following symtoms. Two started
about the same time and the other one
awhile ago.
Firstly, since about two days ago, I have
had a horrible throat pain whenever
swallowing, and sometimes when moving or
breathing. I compare this pain to strep
throat but it's not quite like that, has
more of a burning sensation. Today it
has evolved into not only a throat pain,
but a flowing pain right down to the chest
about heart level.
Secondly (though i'm pretty sure this may
be mastoiditis), my mastoid (i say this
assuming the mastoid is the bone behind my
ear) has swollen up over the past couple
weeks, or month. Wondering what that
might be related to.
My own speculation on this is saturday
morning I took a bath, and when washing my
hair, it felt like some water went into my
ear (the one with the swollen mastoid) a
bit further than water normally does.
Later that day the sore throat showed up.
Related?
Please if anyone could give their
comments, or expertise on this i'd be very
glad (especially when I rid of the chest
and throat pain).

Well the arn nose and thorat are all
related. So the water going into your
injured ear might have triggered your sore
throat again. An ent dcotor could help
with this. Pain in the ear may be a sign
of infection. Good lcuk and keep me
posted.
