I am 7 months out of treatment, and began having sporadic ear pain about two months ago, on the side that received more radiation. Today it is particularly troublesome. Saw my MO two weeks ago and he said every thing looked and felt great. Does anybody else have this and is it caused by the radiation, or could it be something worse? I saw my ENT for this a month ago, and he thought it could be allergies and prescribed me Nasonex. I just don't know how my throat/ears are supposed to feel now. Would a cold cause me to have ear pain, now that I have had radiation? I am not having throat pain, just ear pain.
