Brief Answer:
You probably have an ear infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for using Healthcare Magic. The symptoms you describe lead me to suspect you have an ear infection. This can also cause dizziness as well as soreness.
I suggest you take paracetamol and ibuprofen for the pain. You will benefit from antibiotics so I advise you see your doctor.
I hope this is of help. If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
Regards,
Dr K A Pottinger,
MBChB. FRCA
