Can I Take Motrin For Inflamed Ears Due To Loud Music?

My ears feel inflamed due to loud music, can I take motrin? I am age 65, 5 2 tall, weigh 125 lbs. About 5 years ago, I was exposed to ear piercing noise from my car stereo. The next day, I happened to be under a speaker & suddenly extremely loud music came on as we waited for our names to be called at a restaurant. My ears were so sensitive I had to wear ear plugs for the remainder of our trip. I saw a doctor & was told, no ear drum damage. Since then, loud anything bothers my ears, they feel inflamed & is very bothersome. Can I take motrin to ease this feeling? Thank you, Jacqueline
