Intermittent Pain and fluttering in ear
My mother has been experiencing sudden bouts of fluttering accompanied by a sharp pain in the ear which feels like a pin trying to perforate the ear drum. The fluttering according to her, feels like something is flying inside the ear. This has been happening since yesterday. She regularly takes hypertension medication, i.e., Tazloc AM. Local doctors are not available due to the Covid restrictions. I don't know what to do. Please help?
