Have pain in left ear, above ear hole

2020-06-10 02:59:33
I have been having pain in left ear on and off since a week, from yesterday it's continuous. Pain is felt above the ear hole, can feel that it's internal since no swelling, no redness. I am automatically avoiding putting headphone in that ear due to consistent discomfort. Also been hearing humming sound in same left ear since 2 /3 weeks which now can hear from right ear as well since 2 days. Both majorly in night or while sleeping. Also heard heart beat kind of sound in right ear since 2 days when woke up from deep sleep. Please advice, help.

The ringing or tinnitus could be for many reasons..from wax to fungus to high BP . Ideally would be better to get the ear checked
