I have an ear infection and cannot see a doctor for a week. What can help with the sharp pain, especially since it kept me up most of the night? I am 76 years old, on blood pressure meds, thyroid medication, and dexilant. My symptoms include sharp pain, and I can hear okay with no drainage. I am not sick otherwise but do have a cough.

I have been experiencing throat pain when swallowing for almost 4 days, which is achey and burning. I have been taking Tylenol but it is not getting better. I also feel cold sometimes and have occasional cough, nausea, and vomiting when the pain aggravates. What could be causing this and what can I do to alleviate the pain?

I tested positive for COVID-19 and have a high fever of 103.3°F, along with chills, a mild cough, and body aches. My breathing is fine, but I feel congested and have a minor sore throat. I am fully vaccinated with two boosters and have no significant pre-existing conditions except for a slight heart murmur and benign arachnoid cysts on my brain. What should I do for my symptoms and should I seek medical attention?
