your opinion
Ok so about 3 weeks to a month ago, I was REALLY sick! My throat was in excruciating pain!!! My ears felt like they were gonna pop. So, I went to the doctor and he gave me antibiotics. I started to feel better. But, I was a little weak. Around Friday, I started to get a really bad pain in my ear. I thought maybe I had an ear infection. At night, the pain gets worst! I'm talking bad!!! Likw when I swollow, it hurts my ear. When I talk, it hurts my ear. Its not a small pain. Its excruciating and keeping me up at night. Its my right ear and on my right tonsil there's white dots. I'm going to the doctor today, but I just wanted to see if any of you can give me your opinion on this...
Thanks!

I had a throat infection in October that lasted through three months and a round of antibiotics. Sometimes the bug you have is too strong for just one round. Your doctor will likely put you on something stronger this time.
When the glands in your throat swell, it puts pressure on the inner workings of your ear. That causes the severe ear pain.
In the meantime, do what you can to keep hydrated, because I know that was a problem for me. I lived on nothing but popsicles and sorbet for a good few weeks. Stuff like that that isn't too sugary and is cold is nice, because it helps to numb the pain.

Definitely keep your doctors appointment. None of us are doctors and cannot and should not be making any type of diagnoses. While it may sound like something recognize not being a doctor and not having the ability to examine you if we were; we could be entirely wrong.
When it comes to physical injuries or illnesses always go to the professional.

well the white dots sound like tonsilitis. I got white & blue-ish dots on mine when I was 8 & I had to get them taken out. It sounds like maybe the tonsils are
causing the ear pain, since theyre on the same side.
But i'm no doctor, so definitely go to a professional.
good luck :)
