For the past couple days, my ears have been hurting, like a dull pain, and when my ears start to ring, I get dizzy and then I get a headache. I also don't have an appetite. I haven't been hungry at all these past couple days but ate so I could at least nourish my body. Sometimes I feel like I have to throw up too, but I don't.
Could this be an ear infection, or what could it be?
Thanks

Yeah, you could have an ear infection, although the most common type of ear infections are *very* painful, not dull. Or a drug allergy (taking any new meds lately?), a damaged eardrum, a head injury (this is what leaped to my mind),or a host of other ailments. Get yourself to a doctor and get checked out.

May not be an ear infection, they are usually very painful and you normally get a fever. You could have labrynthitis (sp) it is when your equilibrium is off. It is possible to have fluid without it being infected. try the doctor. I have had fluid in my ears for years. they tell me to take an anti histimine (again sp) to open the eustation tubes. good luck

It sounds like you need to go to the dr. When you have an ear infection it can make you dizzy and upset to your stomach. It makes your equilibrium off. You will probably need antibiotics to get well.

could be an infection...inner ear versus sinuses vs other types. You need to see your doc
