Why is my ear paining?!


Question: Why is my ear paining?
I developed a very nasty habit of scratching my ear vigourously with my index finger about a year ago or so. Until before recently, it didnt cause me any problems, other than being more itchy the next time before previous.
But the night before yesterday, i woke up in the middle of the night, to discover a shooting pain in the inside of my ear. Moving my jaw seems to transfer the pain to the side of my cheek, and pressing down on my ear only made it worse.
Also i feel as though i can hear equally from both ears, but when i chew, or swallow, it seems that my left ear is clogged, although, i dug into my ear with cotton bud, and there is absolutely nothing there.
Its very annoying, and im worried for if its serious?
Is my eardrum damaged??
Some infevton perhaps??
Please let me know, im sick with worry :(

don't shove things into your ear. The only thing that should ever be shoved into your ear is your elbow.

Go and make an appointment with your GP or practice nurse.



omg do not use cotton buds in your ears.it proberly simple compacted wax after year of doing this.i strongly suggest you let dr check it out
