What Causes Pain In Right Ear And Throat While Swallowing?
My right ear hurts when I speak too much or swallow. My right eye is also swollen, my throat hurts on the right side when I speak too much or swallow, and I had a headache on that side the past few days. Under my chin on the right side also feels rather swollen. What are some possibilities and if I do see a doctor will any needles be required?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your swollen ear sore throat swollen chin with associated headache I am suggesting the following differential diagnosis
Acute parotitis(mumps)
Acute otitis media
Acute sinusitis
Acute pharyngitis
In view of this please see an ENT specialist for further clinical assessment lab test and drug treatment
Don't worry no needle procedure in your situation
I hope this helps
