My husband has pain behind his ear and in his throat. He has taken zyrtec, a decongestant, an antibiotic, and a nasal spray. Nothing has given him any relief. He has had this for over a year. To tolerate the pain, he is taking ibuprofen 3-4 times a day, but this doesn t help sometimes. We are desperate for some help, but are not willing to pay for a doctors response when we really don t know that the answer is coming from a REAL doctor.
