Swollen gland in neck and ear fullness?

[jfromok]

For at least the past year I've noticed that on the right side of my neck I've had a swollen gland also it feels like i've got something stuck on the right side of my throat and fullness in my right ear.  My Dr. never seems concerned about my symptoms but she said that I could see an ENT if I had concerns.  The ENT said he couldn't see anything in my throat and said that many times GERD causes the feeling in my throat like something is stuck.  Can GERD cause a fullness feeling in my right ear as well as a swollen gland on the right side of my neck?  or is the swollen gland causing the fullness felling in my right ear and on the right side of my neck?  Thank you for any help.

You're in menlo park?!?  You could have her come see me in PAMF Urgent Care.

Sore throat, swollen glands, ear pain, ringing can all be due to GERD, post-nasal drip, and other reasons

Eye soreness is less common, which can be due to migraine or other headache syndromes

Many treatments for these causes are available.

My fiancee is experiencing something similar...are you experiencing pain also..what about any other symptoms like eye soreness or ringing in your ears??
And has anything worked???
Thanks for any help!!!

inigo, thanks for the vote of confidence.

Sure, GERd can cause those symptoms, as can post-nasal drip from allergies.

calling the attention of Enoch Choi, MD.

jfromok, this is exactly  what i have been experiencing for the past 9 months already...except that the enlaged node is found under my right jaw.  this feeling of something got stuck in my thorat is annoying me already...
i had GERD too.

let's wait what  Enoch Choi, MD has to say  about this or perhaps you could post this again ...look for the topics --blood in the back of throat--- and---- enlarged submandibular gland.

i hope this catches you well
