A member asked:
My question is what causes headaches, swollen tonsils, stiff neck, and earaches?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Throat infection : The group of symptoms listed can form a cascade. Tonsils can be swollen from infection, possibly viral or bacterial. Referred pain from the throat to the ears is common, so the ears hurt. When there is an infection in the throat, lymph nodes in the neck would swell, which may become sore, and cause the neck to feel stiff.
