Constant headache, neck pain & earache

[Funk]

Since yesterday morning, I've had pain in the right-hand side of my head and neck area. It's a constant ache which feels like a combination of glands, a headache, earache and sprain. It hurts to turn my head and I have no other ailments (so I don't think it's anything like a cold for example). I am wondering whether I could have slept awkwardly, but I can't understand why that would be giving me earache and a constant headache?
The pain hasn't abated since mid-morning yesterday.

I'm loathe to waste a doctor's time with this but it's affecting me as I'm in constant pain. Any ideas? Just stock up on ibuprofen and paracetamol and ride it out?

Morning chaps. Thanks for the replies, I'm pleased to report that I'm not dead yet.

Still in pain; after popping pills yesterday, I knew the measure would come this morning after they wore off overnight. It's not a throbbing pain, I have no rash or light-aversion. Neck's very sore and stiff, it really hurts to turn my head left (weirdly looking right is OK). The whole area is somewhat tender but the headache is gone and the earache has subsided. I think I must've just slept awkwardly and cricked all the muscles. I'm about to load up on ibuprofen and paracetemol and will see how I'm doing in 24 hours' time.
