Dr. Oppenheim was friendly and listened to my concerns. Despite ear ringing, tender throat and ear pressure he said he could find no issues. Only suggestion was maybe I strained neck somehow despite symptoms for 2 months. Maybe there is nothing wrong but he did not spend much time feeling around neck - he did look in ears, performed hearing test, and looked in nose. Hopefully he is right but I feel like something else is causing my symptoms. If symptoms persist will seek 2nd opinion.
