What Causes Fever,cough And Ringing Sensation In Left Ear?

I m just getting over a virus with fever, cough, aches and pains over the last week. My left ear feels stopped up and is ringing loudly (I do have tinnitus in that ear but this is different, very loud) and my head feels very full as though it is full of mucus. But there isn t any mucus. My sinuses are clear. I still have somewhat of a cough for which I m taking Mucinex DM. Otherwise I m just taking it easy so I won t have a relapse as others have had with this. Please tell me why my head feels full and ear is stopped up and what I can do about it. Many thanks, Joan Hooper

Hi dear!

Thanks for consulting the Physicians at HealthCare Magic. I have worked through your case thoroughly, and I can easily realize your health worries. Being your physician, I reassure you not to worry as things will settle down very soon.
You have got Pharyngitis leading to middle ear infection. Thats why your head is full, your symptoms are due to all of this. You need antibiotics for that and antipyretics(for fever). I prescribe to my patients at my clinic Capsule Amoxicillin500mg twice for 7days. Tablet Ibuprofen800mg twice daily for 5days. Tablet Fexet-D 1 daily for 5days.

May you get very well soon and have a wonderful time ahead. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback to help us assist you in a better way. Click at 'I Find This Answer Helpful' & give a five Stars too. Write a review about your experience with me.
