Suggest Treatment For Ear Ache And Throat Pain

My ears ache (no infection) and my glands hurt. The back of my tongue aches, (no wisdom teeth, no tmj) Saw ENT and given flonase and clarinex. Not going away. Should I seek another doctor? It s like a deep tissue ache down my ear canals (and they look good, I m told.) under and behind my ears are tender.

Hi,

Looking at your symptoms, you might be suffering from inflammation in your ear-canal and throat resulting in inflammation of lymph nodes in your neck. You need to take antibiotic (like Cefixime), Analgesic (like Ibuprofen), Antacid (like Rantac), Vitamin tablet containing B-complex and vitamin C.

Your doctor has prescribed you the following medication-Flonase-It is a Sseroid spray used in case of allergy and Clarinex is an antihistaminic tablet which is also used in case of allergy.

You may not need these medication, as looking at your symptoms, there is no sign of allergy. Also do warm saline gargles. Avoid self cleaning your ear with anything and avoid water going inside ear. Avoid spicy and oily food. If after taking the above measures, your symptoms are not improving, then it would be advisable to consult an otolaryngologist doctor.

Hope this answers your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Riddhi Shah
