Constant Ear pain since 3-4 days

2017-07-08 21:37:17
I've been suffering from pain in my ear for the past 3-4 days. A week ago, I was cleaning my ear with a stick, just to remove the dust, and just pulled my ear a little bit harder. At that point of time, I didn't feel any pain. But next day morning, I felt some pain (might be because of improper sleep), and it gets harder.
