Ok drs

I have been miserably coughing, fever,and sore throat since Saturday. Yesterday the achiness started and coughing up blood ( just tints of blood) and my ear started hurting so bad. I'm taking Tylenol for the fever and aches . Went to the dr and the nurse practitioner said it was an ear infection. Does achiness come with an ear infection? I've never had this before and the coughing. It's weird please help. Only serious help please no rude comments please
