Not : Not sure how acute this is. Is there swelling, redness, fevers, nausea? That could mean infection on the neck lymph nodes, throat, ear, or dental... Ear infections can cause this constalation of symptoms along with hearing loss/muffling, drainage from the ear, etc. Jaw joint pain can radiate to the neck, ear, and head, can worsen with chewing, yawning, talking (but not always). Many neck and throat issues can radiate to the ear and head areas. If it seems like an infection, go to the urgent care, if it is more chronic and achy, it may be able to wait for primary care.

Evaluate Neck: If you are not improving have your doctor order a cervical spine mri. Many times a herniated disc in the neck can cause arm pain especially if you have not improved with the medications and physical therapy. If it is a herniated disc you may need evaluation from a spine specialist to determine what other options might be needed (injections, surgery, etc) to help reduce pain.
