Malady
I have had a viral ear infection for almost a week now.
It makes itself known to me not as an irritation in my ear, though I can detect some slight discomfort there, but as a hollow, unrelenting ache that stretches from both of my inner ears into my jaw and teeth, down through my throat to my sternum and lastly branching out along my collarbones to the tips of my shoulders.
Prescribed antibiotics are supposed to defeat the infection, and seemed to have been steadily doing so until this morning. The pain is back at full strength and nothing I take for it has curtailed it so far. I feel terrible.
Perhaps I'll return to the doctor tomorrow.
