Pain the right ear

Please do not put mustard oil in the ear. It is not helpful and actually has the opposite effect. Pain in the ear may be due to multiple reasons. A cold in the past? Trauma to the ear? Wax? Fungus? You must visit a doctor so a complete examination of the ear nose and throat would help find out the cause of the ear pain and he treated accordingly.
Next Steps
You can give a pain killer SOS, but cause of the pain must be ruled out.
