Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Approx 8 hours ago I was cleaning my ears with a cotton tip, I felt a slight bit of discomfort. Afterwards I have been experiencing pain and discomfort in the ear, it seems to come and go, it is not unbearable just uncomfortable. I have never experienced this feeling, it is not like a deep earache feel. Have I done damage?
