What Causes Left-sided Ear Pain And Tenderness On The Sides Of The Neck?

I have been suffering with what seems like viral symptoms for over 3 weeks off and on. I have tenderness on both sides of neck right under the ears, sore throat and my left ear is occasionally painful....I am wondering if it is time to go in for an exam?

ENT Specialist 's  Response
hi
you are having sore throat and ear ache both ,hence your ear ache seems to be a reffered earache from your sore throat ie may be tonsillitis or pharyngitis.
i would suggest you visit an ent specialist and get yo
ur ear and throat examined.
and then start treatment.
if ur exams are very important you can take symptomatic treatment and attend ur exams.
regards
