Ear infection

[DreamBoy]

Hello Guys,

Not been on here in a while. Been to the Drs this morning. Got an ear infection. But Ive also got a pain going down my neck.

When I mentioned the pain to the Dr he said my lymph node would be up trying to help fight off the infection.

Im really worried now due to the mention of the lymph node - is this like a normal thing to have with an ear infection? Please can someone just say that it is!

Cheers

Hi Dream Boy (love the user name!) :-)
I agree with Margaret, I've had ear infections in the past and had the same with pains down my neck. It is a normal (nut unfortunately not the most comfortable) way of your body resposnding to the infection and trying to fight it off. Please don't worry (if you can) and hope your ear infection clears up soon.
