What Causes Stabbing Pain In The Ear And Hearing Loss?
What could this be? Right ear clogged and severe stabbing pain for almost a week. Left ear starting pain today. Hearing loss. Extreme pain and pressure in my head at all times. Pressure worsens like my head will explode when I cough. Head pressure came on suddenly two days ago and worsens every day. Almost unbearable. Can t make it to a doctor until next Tuesday.

Hi,
Your situation is tricky as your symptoms are suggesting two diagnosis either you are having wax in your ears or you have got fungal infection in your ears. The treatment differs for both and only an ENT specialist can differentiate and tell you exactly after examining your ears.
