Best Answer

Signs of general infection apply such as pain, swelling, redness, discharge. Ear infections can be classified according to whether they involve the innerear, middle ear or outer ear. Inner ear infections typically cause dizziness, vertigo and nausea. Middle ear infections can cause hearing difficulty, whereas outer ear infections are typically painful. Try waggling the outer ear, if there is an established infection of the ear canal movement will be extremely painful.

Your ears will hurt all of the time. There may be jaw pain. There are over-the-counter instruments that you can get...but since you cannot prescribe the drugs you would need and analyze what you are seeing, it is so much better to go to the Dr. or minute clinic.
