My husband has had like a virus. He had a headache, felt stick, had aches, a stiff neck and bad throat. These symptoms stopped but has had a bad cough for few days and now still a bad cough with violent pain in the ear. What can he do to relieve the pain?

Hi and thanks for the query,
it is posiible that your husband has an infected ear.
he will probably require an antibiotic.
he should visit a doctor to get the prescription.
till them he can take any over the counter pain killer after checking the dosage.
he should sleep with an extra pillow, it reduces the congestion and pain.
