Hi IP,
Pain from an earache can radiate through the eustachian tubes and down the neck area...these areas are in close proximity, and I have experienced this before.
Besides this...what else is feeding your fear? If you can't pinpoint any other reason to think you may have a malignancy in your neck...
...then you can probably blame anxiety. Remember that anxiety is a liar, and likes to suggest the most frigtenening things to us, so how likely is it really that you have cancer?
...not likely at all really.
You do however know that you are challenged with anxiety...so I would encourage you to put your focus on managing that right now, by use of your coping skills.:)
You will feel better about it when you do.:)
With understanding...and hope your ear infection clears up soon too!
S.C.
