Re: Pain in my ear when swallowing and feel like something is stuck in my throat
I've had this when I've had slightly swollen glands with a cold, or even just a bad throat. If the doctor says you're fine and it's just a cold, then trust them. They can't give you anything for that anyway. See how it goes over the next few days with some lemsip or something. If it's still bad in a week or so then maybe go back, that's what I'd do. Chances are it will've gone by then anyway.
If you don't have a temperature then I suggest going to work. If it's a cold, yes take it easy, but you don't need to stay at home. The fresh air, change of scenery and distraction will help. I had a horrible cold a couple of weeks ago, with a temperature on and off, but felt slightly better when I was busy and not focussing on it.
