Resp. Infection: Sounds like a respiratory infection, usually viral. Pain in the ears can be due to either ear infection, or simply pressure build up in the ears from nasal and sinus congestion, fluid in the eustachian tubes and subsequent fluid and pressure in the middle ear chamber. Try decongestants, push fluids, and if high fever or no better in 10 days, see your doc.
