My left ear has been giving me pain recently. I was at a concert relatively close to a speaker a few weeks ago and it s hurt ever since. Any noise (such as talking on the phone) makes it hurt worse and for longer periods of time. When it s not aching, I feel like my ear is about to pop (like when on an airplane).
The symptoms seem to be related to an ear infection. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain. I also suggest using antibiotic ear drop for local application. If the symptoms continue, I suggest using antibiotics such as Augmentin.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
