Ahmed had a severe throat infection. After a few days he developed an earache too. What could be the reason for the pain in his ears? Explain.
Answer
Ahmed’s earache after a throat infection is likely because the infection spread from his throat to the middle ear through the eustachian tube (which connects the throat and the middle ear). This causes inflammation and fluid buildup in the middle ear, leading to pain and discomfort.
