You seem to be suffering from acute otitis externa which is a common type of ear canal infection. It is safe to use t bact ointment but it may be difficult put deep inside the canal. Even antibiotic ear drops are very effective in this condition
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
