Is It Common To Get Terrible Ear Ache During A Severe Sore Throat ?
I started to get a sore throat yesterday afternoon and by last night, my throat was on fire. I managed to get some sleep but woke up with a terrible ear ache. Is this common? How can I get rid of a sore throat quickly? I'm a teacher and I really need to make it to school on Monday.
