It feels kind of heavy and recently I have been having pain in the sides of my neck a the back. I have had an infection but I wouldn t of thought it would cause the weird sensation I m getting in my neck atm it also seems to be affecting my ear mostly when I move my neck back and forwards. Any suggestions as what it could be

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having acute infection in ear giving rise to painful, enlarge lymph nodes in the neck causing this problem.
If you are elderly then possibility of having cervical spondilitis is there.
Consult your doctor and go for one antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicine course.
If he advises, go for x-ray cervical region.
Ok and take care.
