Would need a few more details. Is there any fever? Any discharge from ear? It's better to consult an ENT specialist. If it's  a localized infection or some inflammation of the nerves etc, by and large, it won't affect the baby's growth. But if it's a localised infection, it's important to treat it, so that it doesn't become complicated.
Next Steps
Consult an ENT specialist.
