Hi all,

The last few days I have experienced a severe pain in my neck, midway down my jugular that hurts to the touch. When I press it, the pain is felt in the back of my throat and through my ear. My jaw also hurts on that side. I have been taking vicodin for pain, tylenol stopped working. I had an appointment with my ent in sept and all looked good. I am 4 years out from end of treatment. I have never felt anything like this. I just got over a few bad head and chest cold and have residual congestion. Does this sound like an infection or something worse? Please help.
