General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello there I have read through your question and would like to tell you that it seems you are suffering from an ear infection . It is not advisable to put anything inside your ear as it may cause perforation in the tympanic membrane and may lead to hearing loss. I would advise you to get yourself checked by an ENT for direct examination and further course of treatment. You may be prescribed an antibiotic ear drop and even an oral course of antibiotics. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing healthcare magic.
