Having On And Off Pain Shooting In Ear. What Is Causing This And Cure?

I am experiencing shooting pain in my right ear from the time I attended my mobile half an hour back. The pain comes and goes and comes and goes in pulses of shooting pain 6 - 8 times with a duration of 1-2 seconds of relief in between. The pain intensity is similar to a toothache if it is infected. on a grade of 1-10 it is 5/6 I had earlier experienced pain too but not to this extent. This has really alarmed me.
