What Causes Pressure And Pain In Ears?

Hi I have pressure in my ear on the right side and feel like the lymph node is a bit swollen. It sometimes has a dull pain in the ear/behind the ear. no fever I had a cold/sore throat a month ago. it s been bothersome for about a month (my husband thought it was allergies but I don t have other allergy symptoms really) I made a doctors appt for later this week but I can t stop thinking about it. I also have to get my wisdom teeth out-although the dentist said they to ok right now...not painful when i eat or to hot/cold...the top wisdom teeth have stains (no cavities) and are far back/close to the cheeks

Hi ,Your clinical history is suggestive of Right Eustachian tube blockage common after cold & sore throat.
Start Steam Inhalation , Decongestant nasal drops , Antihistaminic levocetirizine + Montelukast ,Paracetemol + Ibuprofen combination , Antibiotic azithromycin , Vit C for 5 days. You will be fine.

If you donot get relief , ENT examination become essential.
