Why does the right side of my neck just below the ear feels weird?it feels kind of tense and pulsating and it hurts a bit when i touch there.

Neck pain: Below the ear there are multiple anatomical fixtures: lymph nodes, vessels etc. The most common if you have recently been ill or have had an ear infection etc. could be lymph nodes that are inflamed. They can pulse based on the vessels there. Other possibilities includes an inflammation of the veins or phlebitis You should see your doctor as its hard to make a judgement.
