Why would my throat hurt on one side then when my throat isn't hurting my ear on that side is?

Question

I have a doctors appointment for Monday but wanted to know if anyone else might know what would cause this and what to do in the mean time.

Answer 1

sinus infection maybe.....have you been to you dentist lately..

Answer 2

You more than likely have an ear infection, that is draining into your throat causing it to hurt because your ears, nose and throat are all connected by your sinuses, if you only have one ear ache on one side then that same side of your throat will hurt when it is draining

Answer 3

i had this and it turned out to be related to dental issue around the wisdom tooth area.  displaced pain.

Answer 4

Sounds like maybe a strep infection. When they go untreated for a while they can spread to your ears.  Take some Tylenol?  It will help with the inflammation.

Answer 5

Because there all connected.  Ear, nose and throat.
