It appears to be otitis externa. Take antibiotic course for a period of 7 days along with pain killers. In case there is discharge from ear, then get it cleaned from an ent specialist. It also might need ear packing depending upon the evaluation. For time being to get rid of pain, hot fomentation around ear might help.
