A member asked:
I have a sore throat and ear pain right side. tonsillectomy when i was 21. what could be causing the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infections: The removal of tonsils does not end your risk of either strep throat or any of the other causes of throat infection. At best, it limits the intensity of your pain. The other tissues of the throat remain vulnerable to infection.Your ear may be infected or showing pressure as part of a combined infection of both areas.
