Hello there. I can understand your concern.  You could have gone a little too far with the ear bud. Get it checked out by a ENT specialist to rule out any injury to the ear drum. Chew some gum and you may find temporary relief. Do not put anything inside the ear now. Best regards.  Dr. Anil kumar jain.  Bangalore
