Suggest Treatment For Left Ear Pain

My left ear has been causing me pain since yesterday, but had been somewhat plugged for a week now. It feels like I may have a pimple in my ear since it s painful to put pressure on it. I have tried the maneuver of holding my nose and blowing to unplug my ear and it makes a crackling high pitched sound. What can I do to fix this?

Hello,
It really depends upon what is going on in your ear. It could be a middle ear infection, an external ear infection or just a wax buildup causing ear pain. You really need to get a doctor to look into your ear and see what is causing the problem to get a diagnosis and adequate treatment.
