Hello,
Your the eardrum pain is not related to the numbness in the right hand, which could be caused by a pinched nerve.
For this reason, I would recommend consulting first with an ENT specialist for a physical exam, in order to exclude a possible ear infection and then with a neurologist.
Nerve conduction studies may be needed, in order to examine your nerves and exclude a possible pinched nerve.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
