Normal? No!: If your ear infection is is causing these symptoms, please get treated as soon as possible. You could have a very serious situation that would need urgent and aggressive treatment. Viral illnesses, tumors, abscesses, spreading of infection to other structures and could be a cause of severe complications. Please get seen by an ENT or other appropriate doctor.
