Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Ear While Having Vertigo

Brief Answer:
Most likely referred pain to the ear.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for your query.
1. The pain in the ear is most likely to be a referred pain from the jaw if the ear is normal on examination. An ENT specialist can confirm this by examining the ear drum and hearing tests.
2. Get a dental opinion. Dental infections need to be ruled out.
3. An anti-inflammatory painkiller and heat fomentation should be tried before any other treatment.
4. A dental splint or guard helps relax the jaw and ease the pain.
I hope that I have answered your query. If you have any further questions, I will be available to answer them.
Regards.
