My upper ear has been killing me for a few days. Very sharp pains, some areas of my ear are tender to touch and the side of my head too. Today, when I bent over to pick something up off the ground, the inside of my ear hurt really bad. Prior to this it had only been the cartilage that was painful. Is this an infection?
