Dr. Carla Enriquez answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Referred pain: Pain in the throat is often "referred" to the ears because of the way they develop embryonically. Frequent or persistent throat pain could be many things, particularly if you have a young child who brings home the viruses. See your doctor for clarification.
