What Causes Sore Throat Along With Earache?
I never get sick, I have had already had a flu shot. My throat is really sore in the morning and my ear will hurt when I wake up. I am super congested. I just got this weird rash on my elbow. Should I be concerned? I am a 44 year old male, in good physical condition.

Hello,
Consult a general practitioner and start a short course of antibiotics preferably amoxclav. As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief. You can also do warm saline gargles for symptomatic relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
