Detailed Answer:
Hi! Welcome to health care magic! Thanks for sharing your concerns with us. We will try to help you in best way possible. First of all, it is sad to know what you had been experiencing lately.

Based on the history you have shared, it can be some ear infection either in the middle ear or pertaining to outer ear or ear drum. In any case to start with, you can take OTC analgesics like acetaminophen to control the intensity of pain.

Meanwhile you need to consult any nearby emergency room visit to get your ear examined in detail. It may need to be reviewed later by an ENT specialist as well. If any signs of infection is confirmed a small course of antibiotics like augmentin or cephradine may be needed.

Don't try to pour anything in the effected ear unless examined in detail. Wishing you a speedy recovery. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Regards.
