Can Bad Pain In The Back Of Left Ear After Sneezing Very Hard Followed By Slurred Words Be Serious ?

My husband sneezed very hard last weekend and he now says that he has a very bad pain in back of his left ear that feels like a very bad headache. He also slurred some words tonight. Can this be something serious to see a doctor about tomorrow. Thanks

hello!
well. the pain may not be serious, but the slurring of speech is not a good sign and i would strongly advice you to meet your doctor/neurologist for examination and advice.
thanks
