What Causes Sore Neck And Itching Ears After Eating Food?

Question: My name is XXXXXXX and I am a forty eight year old in pretty good health female. The last five days or so I have been noticing that my neck and surrounding muscle area has been sore. And I touched the middle of my throat and it seemed a little sore. My ears have also been itching more lately in the past few days. However, today after eating a few bites of carrots and hummus and attempting to eat half a sandwich with lots of lettuce, I suddenly noticed instantly it seemed hard to swallow as if something is in my throat when I swallow. This completely alarmed me and then sensation is still ongoing( 3 hrs up till now). The right side of my throat feels full where my ear is a little itchy and everytime I swallow I get that sensations as something is in my throat. This past weekend I went on a small vacation and stayed at a hotel where I was bit pretty bad by bed bugs. The bites became infected! They were large and raised and very itchy and bothersome up until today. I treated the bites with an over the counter anti itch cream and sprayed bactine on the bites. That seemed to work. I tried to eat agan and the same sensations happen it felt as if something is in my throat and it feels inflamed and very bothersome. It has calmed down some what now but my esophagus still feels inflamed as if sore deep inside of it. I took 2 advils at 2:30 PST. Can you please tell me what could be possibly the issue. Thank you.

Thank you doctor. Can I take both these medicines at the same time of course one for day and the other for night? I seemed to have slept pretty well with little irritation but now it seems to be starting up again, this morning now that I am up? Can you tell me why I am feeling the sensations again in my throat and this wasnt happening while sleep nor was I awakened by it? Thank you again for all your help.
I also forgot to mention that the night before yesterday I suddenly felt achy as if I was coming down with a cold. This went on for several hours until I took some Advil to help relieve the symptoms. I am guessing I must have been allergic to the bed bugs. This is so upsetting to me. I am feeling this tightness in my throat again this morning. Thank you. I am going to purchase the medications this morning to suggested. Also, are you allowed to prescribe medications?

Thank you doctor. The pharmacies are closed currently in my area right now. Again, thank you so much for all your help and expertise. Have a blessed and fantastic day.
Sincerely, XXXXXXX

Hello Doctor,
I followed your instructions and got the medications your prescribed. Thank you! I am feeling much better now. I talked with the physician pharmacist and she was helpful in helping me find the medications your prescribed. She also included that I should seek getting an epi pen in case an allergic reaction occurs again. I do realize that I need a prescription for that. I do not have medical insurance unfortunately at this time, but I have the option to visit a doctor and pay cash. Would you suggest I take a copy of our communication as evidence that I am having an allergic reaction so I can get this epi pen? Please advise. And again thank you so much!!
